Large Red Cardinal Christmas Ornament
18009 Merck Family's Old World Christmas
Measures approximately 6"
Mouth blown, hand painted, glass Christmas ornament from Merck Family's Old World Christmas. Glass bird ornament with red tail feathers, clip on style ornament.
Birds are symbols of happiness and joy, so they are regarded as a necessity on the Christmas tree. Glassblowers often kept wild birds during the winter months since the sound of the gas flame in the workshop prompted the birds to sing. Then when spring arrived, the birds returned to freedom.
