They sparkle, they shine--they light up the tree and the eyes of all who look upon them: therein lies the beauty of Christmas ornaments. Across these pages in richly detailed photographs are a merrily glistening array of some of the most creative, clever, and exquisite ornaments ever produced. A lively introduction explains the tradition of decorating trees, and gives the history of ornaments from the first commercially marketed ones (made possible by a new glass-blowing process) to the silver balls and garlands produced by newly arrived immigrants to the United States to modern designs fashioned out of Styrofoam and satin. The authors also look at some homemade treasures, including designs on paper and food-based decorations such as cookies, pretzels, and marzipan.

Silver Christmas Ornaments have been popular for over a hundred years and continue to generate renewed enthusiasm every year when new issues are announced. Ornament collecting has never been more widespread and silver ornaments are especially sought after. Because they are made from precious metal, they not only hold their value, but become more valuable as time passes. Designs are as diverse as the traditional bell and snowflake to modern interpretative art, and they are stunningly beautiful adornments for a Christmas tree! Collectors and lovers of silver ornaments will find the most complete compilation of information available in Silver Christmas Ornaments. Author Clara Johnson Scroggins has done a superb job of identifying and describing more than 100 ornaments produced from 1980 to 1997. She also lists pre-1980 ornaments, with year of issue price and includes a price guide of selected prices.
