Pygmy Owl Ornament Old World Christmas

Pygmy Owl Ornament Old World Christmas. Owls are symbols of wisdom because they look so serious and thoughtful.

Each figurative 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.
