Botanical forms
reflect the natural beauty and wondrous diversity of nature. Early Christmas
trees were decorated with items from nature, and special treats of the season.
Glass botanical ornaments reflect back to these earlier times, and to the
legends that all trees and flowers bloom in celebration of the birth of the
Christ Child.

Wheat
This head of wheat is a beautiful and unusual ornament. Note its
length. Wheat was the traditional symbol of the Ukraine, the wheat belt
of the Soviet Union. However, one cannot forget the words of Christ -
" I am the bread of life" - and wonder if the symbolism had
dual meaning for this piece. There is some internal darkening of the
ornament, as seen at the top. The overall color is deep gold. The
complex mold is in excellent condition.

Tulip
Maybe it is a tulip, or maybe a bleeding heart. This is not a
delicate ornament, but it has its own charms - nice lines, simple, nice
contrast between the gold of the body and the apricot color of the
base.
