Ornament of the Day: A Glass Sculpture by Carruth Studios

Ohio-based sculptor George Carruth has long been delighting the world with his whimsical sculptures, art and ornaments. This Christmas ornament from the 1980’s is unusual inasmuch as it’s glass as opposed to the usual Carruth medium of clay.


Emerald green glass features a bas-relief figure of Father Christmas in exquisite detail. With all of the charm of George Carruth’s careful sculpting, and with the added shimmer of colored glass, this ornament has always found a prominent place on the Christmas tree.
