Blown Glass Christmas OrnamentsProduct description: Select from 45 blown glass Christmas ornaments. Each one is hand crafted, individually blown, hand painted, and individually etched in some cases. The ornaments are made of a heavy weight Pyrex glass (not to be confused with "soda" glass) and most are trimmed in 22k gold. Each ornament is "fired" a minimum of 3 times resulting in permanent vivid colors and a quality keepsake.To create just one of these Christmas ornaments many artisans put forth their best creative talents. First, the glass blower who brings shape to your ornament. Second, the painter who is meticulous in his or her creative expression, and on some - the artist who etches your ornament. Their talent creates a truly unique piece for you to enjoy year after year. Glass and glassblowing have long been a part of the Egyptian culture, glass has been found in tombs dating back 3,500 years ago. When we say Old World Craftsmanship, we mean it! Available colors: red, blue, purple, gold, clear, and green. Create a new tradition and keepsake for generations to come. Celebrate the spirit of the season all year long with us.
