"Cardinal" Hand Painted Glass Christmas Ball

One of the most beloved birds spotted in the cold months of winter, the cardinal - with his bright, scarlet-red plumage - is easy to see against the snow. This beautiful little jewel of nature is thought to be an angelic messenger in southern Americana lore: legend has it that if you blow him a kiss and think of a loved one, he will carry your message to heaven on his bright red wings. Our hand painted tribute to this lovely feathered friend is presented on a hand-blown glass ornament to treasure for generations; it features a soft matte blue background, an icy rowan branch with a cluster of tempting berries, a dusting of snow, and a contemplative male cardinal seated in the center.

• This delightful hand painted Christmas ornament is made of hand-blown glass in Belgium, which is then individually hand painted for a timeless look.

• This cardinal Christmas ornament measures 3.15” in diameter, and is perfect for any tree.

• No two ornaments will be exactly alike - charming, subtle variations make each one your own.
