New - Mini Snowflake Christmas Ornaments

ENLARGE

The Museum’s miniature ornaments are based on the central snowflake appearing on a charming Christmas card in the Museum’s collection. The first Christmas card was privately printed in London in 1843. In subsequent decades, the commercial production of Christmas cards became widespread in Europe and America as their exchange grew in popularity and printing companies provided customers with a variety from which to choose. The card on which our ornaments are based now belongs to the Museum’s Burdick Collection, which represents the lifework of Jefferson R. Burdick (1900–1963), a devoted collector and cataloguer of trade cards, holiday cards, and other paper collectibles.

Silver plate. Diameter 1 1/2 in. Boxed set of 3. Each ornament includes a silver cord for hanging.
