Ornament of the Day: “Peace on Earth”

Given to me in the mid-1980’s, this large glass ornament represents the earth.  A work of frosted and clear glass, the continents are clearly designed in this hand-blown globe.  The globe is surmounted by a patinated copper ribbon with the repousse message, “Peace on Earth”.  Topped by three copper holly leaves and three bells, this ornament is as attractive as it is meaningful.  This is a message we should try to spread throughout the entire year.
