FERRIS WHEEL

Every time you see this Ferris Wheel Ornament it will remind you of the anticipation you felt while waiting for the ride to start, the way the air swished by as the wheel started to move and the magnificent view from the top when it stopped to let people off and on. This is a great gift to remember that special trip to the State Fair or amusement part. The first Ferris wheel was built for the Chicago's World Fair in 1893. Ferris wheels have been built in several cities as attractions. Other wheels travel from city to city with fairs and carnivals. The picturesque view from the top of the wheel is a special memory. 4 1/2 in.
Each figural glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is hand crafted 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.
