BRAND NEW with Tags OLD WORLD CHRISTMAS ASTRONAUT APOLLO 11 MOON LANDING GLASS XMAS ORNAMENT 24182
Old World Christmas Creations
Each figural 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.
On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon, 4 days after Apollo 11 was launched. They spent about 3 hours on the surface, gathered rock and dirt samples, planted an American flag and left a sign that said, We came in peace for all mankind. The Eagle has landed.
