Blown Glass
Dimensions: 4 X 2 X 4 (HxLxW)

Each figurative glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is handcrafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800s. Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds made exclusively for Old World Christmas before a hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside. The ornaments are then hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations.

As far as we know, Bernese Mountain Dogs were bred as a cross between farm dogs from the Swiss Alps and the Molosser or Mastiff-like dogs brought to Switzerland by the Romans 2,000 years ago. The Berner will want to live inside and cosy up with its family in the evenings. Just make sure you give them enough exercise during the day as otherwise they may become mischievous and show bad behaviors such as chewing, barking or digging up the garden. The Bernese Mountain Dog’s sense of humor is known as the “Berner chuckle.” This is one breed that likes to make its owner laugh and when you do, they’ll keep repeating the action that made you chuckle.
