San Francisco Painted Ladies Ornament Old World Christmas

Dimensions: 2.5 X 5 X 1

Each figurative glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is hand crafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800’s. 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.

San Francisco Painted Ladies Ornament.  The Painted Ladies are a must-stop for many tourists. In the 1960s, the colorist movement experimented with bright colors on the facades of Victorian homes. Over the years, the Painted Ladies have come to symbolize San Francisco architectural traditions and are a staple of the city’s landscape.
