Country Church by Old World Christmas

Standing in town squares, churches have long been houses of worship. In addition, churches are often the heart of the community, serving as gathering places for friends, family and neighbors. Traditional glassblowers created ornaments to reflect their day-to-day lives and styled ornaments after their community churches. Measures 3.75" X 3.5" X 2.75"

Each figurative glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is hand crafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800's. Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds made exclusively for Old World Christmas, before a hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside. The ornaments are then hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations.
