Dragonfly Christmas Ornament

12047

Measures approximately 2 3/4"

Mouth blown, hand painted, glass Christmas ornament from Merck Family's Old World Christmas.

The Dragonfly can fly both forwards and backwards, hover, and make sudden turns. With its quick darting movements, the Dragonfly appears to be a living flash of light. It is the state insect of Alaska because its flying is reminiscent of the skillful bush pilots' maneuvers.
