Sparrow Bird Ornament
18047, Merck Family's Old World Christmas
Sparrow ornament is made of mouth blown glass and delicately hand painted in shades of bronze and gold with gold glitter details. Ornament measures approximately 4 1/4" and would be a addition for your bird collection.
Birds are symbols of happiness and joy, and so they are regarded as a necessity on the Christmas Tree. Glassblowers often kept wild birds during the winter months since the sound of the gas flame in the workshop prompted the birds to sing. Then when spring arrived, the birds returned to freedom.
