2000 Hallmark Keepsake Ornament

QBG4074

More than a century ago, in the days when Christmas trees were lighted with real candles for brief magical moments, European craftsmen began producing beautiful ornaments of blown glass. These treasures, called kugels, were known affectionately as "tree jewelry."

Today the artistry of hand-blown glass ornaments is being rediscovered and given new importance at the holiday season. Whether you display these lovely treasures on your tree or mantel or feature them in a centerpiece, you and your guests will enjoy their elegance, shimmering beauty, and brilliant colors. Each ornament has been individually hand-blown and meticulously painted by hand.

The Hallmark Crown Reflections Collection ... celebrating a time-honored art form that becomes even more precious as our world looks forward to the dawning og a new century.
