Glistening Natural Pinecone
Glistening Natural Pinecone Christmas Ornament, 48028, 4 1/2" from Merck Family's Old World Christmas. Beautiful natural looking pinecone in shades of gold and brown covered with sparkling glitter.
Growing on majestic firs and pine trees, cones are natural decorations. They were among the very first molded dglass ornaments made. Cones were believed to be symbols of motherhood and fertility, so they were given to brides to hang on their Christmas trees.
This traditional and beautiful glass ornament was carefully mouth-blown into a finely crafted mold. Then a hot solution of liquid silver was poured inside. Finally, it was delicately hand-painted and glittered for you to enjoy and cherish as a holiday heirloom!
