Each figurative glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is handcrafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800s. 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.

Sweet Potato Ornament. This sweet, edible, tuberos root is a member of the morning glory family. The first Europeans to taste this delicious vegetable were Christopher Columbus explorers in 1492. Soon after, sweet potatoes could be found around the world.
