German Glass Ornaments - Christborn
Christborn has sworn to preserve a centuries old cultural heritage: to retain the
traditional crafting technique. This means that every ornament leaving Christborn's
workshop has been mouth-blown, silver plated and decorated by hand. This makes
each Christborn ornament truly unique, unmistakable with it's own intrinsic flair.
Christborn GmbH - Bavaria, Germany -- "To manufacture glass ornaments by
machine would stand in contradiction to our philosophy."

Cactus Fruit - Kiwano Horned
Melon Ornament
This ornament could be a Prickley Pair, from the
Cactus family...but we're thinking this is a Kiwano
Horned Melon.
Grown in New Zealand but originally from tropical Africa,
these spiked melons with edible seeds have jelly-like pulp
and a sweet-tart flavor evocative of bananas and cucumbers.
Select fruit free of bruises and splits; store at room
temperature up to two weeks. At peak ripeness, it turns
golden orange.
Uses: Slice into wedges or cut in half lengthwise and eat
directly from shell with a spoon. Use shell as a serving
dish for ice cream topped with the pulp or for fruit dips.

Kwanzaa Man
Christborn Ornament
Kwanzaa is a non-religious African American holiday that takes
place over seven days, from Dec. 26 to Jan. 1. It draws on African
traditions and takes its name from the Swahili phrase for "first
fruits." Its origins are in harvest celebrations that occurred in
ancient and modern times in various places across the African
continent.
Do note the seven candles in his hand!
Kwanzaa was founded in 1966 by Maulana Karenga, a California State
University professor of black studies. The seven principles it
highlights are unity, self-determination, collective work and
responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and
faith.
