Some foods carry a whole neighborhood inside them, and this meatball sandwich ornament is one of them, rendered in glass down to the sauce. Hung on the tree it reads as funny and sincere at once, which is a hard balance for a small object to strike. Send it to the friend with strong opinions about bread, or hang it on a foodie tree between the pasta and the espresso.
Perfect for: food lovers, restaurant industry gifts, white elephant gifts, foodie trees, housewarming gifts, and stocking stuffers.
Old World Christmas shapes ornaments like this by blowing glass into a carved mold, then hand-painting and glittering the details, a tradition of ornament making that started in the 1800s. It arrives with a keepsake box, hangs from a hook or a ribbon, and stores well year to year. It is a common pick for an ornament exchange where the funniest piece wins.
Hang it with other food pieces so the tree looks like a menu, then find more unique Christmas ornaments or set the table with our Italian party supplies.
