There is nothing quite like the quiet fall of snow as it lays its soft touch on each bough of the forest. Especially for those of us in New England, where the winters are truly magical, a snowy tree is a beloved scene that represents peace and tranquility.
Our bestselling, handcrafted Snowy Tree Ornament makes a lovely gift for anyone who loves winter, any snowbird, and anyone whose heart is in the snowy north, wherever they may live. Hang it around the neck of a wine bottle, use it as a Christmas party favor or meal place setting, or simply hang it on a tree bough. Like many of our ornaments, it can be personalized with engraving of a name or date.
This ornament is crafted, finished, and assembled by hand in our Middlebury, Vermont workshop.
"The snow had begun in the gloaming / And busily all the night / Had been heaping field and highway / With a silence deep and white./ Every pine and fir and hemlock / Wore ermine too dear for an earl, / And the poorest twig on the elm-tree / Was ridged inch deep with pearl."
(From James Russell Lowell's "The First Snowfall)
