Angels.
Christmas pageantry would not be nearly so colorful without the presence of angels. Countless girls and boys have been clothed in white robes for their part in the seasonal dramas staged by churches and schools. Angels accompany street processions reenacting the journey to Bethlehem in Latin America and the Philippines. In Europe they are part of the Star Boy groups, which go from door to door. According to an Irish legend the Virgin Mary sends angels each Christmas Eve to awaken children and take them to heaven to sing a carol to the Christ Child. Such children are then returned to their beds and are accounted lucky for the rest of their lives. In Europe angels often accompany the gift bringer and advise which children have been naughty or nice. Select this link to view our Unique Christmas Figurines.

The Star.
The star symbolizes the star that appeared, quite miraculously, in the eastern sky on the birth of Jesus Christ. The star is believed to have guided shepherds and the magi, who were the three wise men from the East, to the newborn king. One wonders whether the star that shined that night was any different from those of today. The star was indeed a strange star and people continue to believe that a miracle occurred at the birth of Christ. The Christmas star continues to adorn the churches and houses as part of the traditional Christmas celebrations. The star stands for high hopes and ideals, a hope for a good fortune and to reach above oneself. Select this link to view our Glass Ornaments for the holidays.
