Each figural glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is hand crafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800's. Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds made exclusively for Old World Christmas, before a hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside. The ornaments are then hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations.

The sun is a symbol of life, energy, positivity, clarity and confidence. No matter the day, good or bad, the ever-present sun rises in the east and sets in the west. This constant gives people meaning, hope and appreciation of life.
