Three Wisemen Inside Art, wisemen depicted on star shaped ornament, mouth blown and hand painted glass, 2 1/4" from Merck Family's Old World Christmas.
The intricate art of painting on the inside of glass bottles and ornaments began centuries ago in China. Through a tiny opening, skilled artists delicately paint fine details of images, thereby preserving the poetry of daily life. Depending on its intricacy, one ornament can take up to several weeks to complete.
