In the early 19th century, it is said that a master glass blower, feeling sorry for a Christmas tree overburdened by the weight of apples and berries woven as garland, experimented with blowing glass beads to lighten this load. His effort to reproduce the apple shape in glass followed by meticulous hand painting was heartily embraced by his village and the craft of hand blowing intricate shapes in glass thrived for centuries.
At Sanford & Lee we believe that a gift deeply rooted in skill and tradition is the ultimate privilege to collect as an heirloom. With our glass garland collection, we are proud to present such a gift. With each strand hand crafted and artfully presented to hold the memories of each and every year, we are honored to inspire your giving traditions.
