A pickle used as an ornament on the Christmas tree seems odd
at first, but this is an old German-American tradition.
When decorating the Christmas tree, it was a practice to
hang the pickle ornament last, hidden among the twigs. The
first child on Christmas Eve to find the Christmas pickle
ornament would receive an extra gift.
Made in Germany by Inge-glas ®
4-1/4 inches - 11,0 cm
This is the largest of three pickle ornaments made by Inge-
glas of Germany. We offer all three sizes as well as a
Gift Box Set - 3 Pickle Ornaments.
This allows you to change the size as your children grow -
Obviously, the older the child, the smaller the pickle size making
it more of a challenge to find!
