FRESH OFF THE VINES
Italian Fruit Garland – The earliest Christmas trees were decorated with paper roses and sweet fruits that hung from the boughs. In Italy, a variety of fruits were used and picked straight from local orchards. Citrus fruits, figs, stone fruits, and pomegranates were among the common choices. Old world traditions of fruit ornaments still carry on today, often in the form of beautiful glass baubles. This gorgeous garland is inspired by the bountiful fruit harvests of Italy and features different fruits native to the region. Each piece is delicately painted to reflect the earthy tones and old world charm of rural Italy.
This design is a Kenzies of London original, new for Winter 2022.
ABOUT OUR GLASS GARLANDS
Each bulb is handcrafted by skilled artisans in Poland. Each ornament starts as a mold crafted from clay and casted into metal. These molds are then used as vehicles to shape into blown glass figures. Expert painters often spend hours carefully painting and detailing each piece with delicate hands. Individual pieces are then connected together to form our incredible garlands that reflect integrity and craftsmanship down to the details.
Unlike other garlands, the ornaments on our strands are larger than average. Kenzies of London believes that an investment should be seen in your holiday decor, not hidden. The statement figural beads on our garlands are designed as showpieces that measure on average of 2-3″ on their longest side.
Because of the nature of blown glass garlands, it is recommended to keep them stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the life of the ornament by storing in rigid boxes filled with padding. Please note that these ornaments are not toys and can break if mishandled, causing injury.
