Imported from Germany by Merck Family’s Old World Christmas, this long retired set of swinging Santa’s are part of a special collection of ornaments that was inspired by the craftsmanship and memories of Birgit Muller-Blech’s glass ornament making roots. When the first glass Christmas ornaments were created in the Thuringian region of Germany over 400 years ago, Birgit’s ancestors were there!

This swanky set of holiday musicians was designed by Birgit and hand–crafted in the same manner used by her ancestors; Birgit is from one of Germany’s premier glassblowing families. Her amazing heritage of craftsmanship and artistry is evident in each ornament she creates. Due to the extraordinary skill and time required to bring each ornament to life, Birgit’s Christmas Collection was, and still is, one of the most limited and collectible ornament collections offered. Each design is retired after its very limited production.

This amazingly detailed set includes; “Miles Plays the Drums” (5”), “Mel on the Accordion” (4 ¾”), “Maurice on the Guitar” (6”), Michael Blows the Horn” (5”), and “Slim with the Banjo” (6”).

Each ornament is topped with the trademark star cap signifying its authenticity as an heirloom created by Inge-Glas. In new, mint condition from store stock, each of these whimsical fellows is packaged in their original see-through plastic ornament case with their Birgit Muller-Blech story card.
