A PICTURE OF ICONIC SICILIAN CULTURE
Sicilian Cart Wheel Ornament – One of the most iconic symbols of Sicilian culture, the painted wagon carts feature intricately painted scenes reflecting the nation’s history. The carts featured bright and vibrant colors that reflect the vibrant nature of its people. Beautiful as the carts are, they served a useful purpose and were used to transport agricultural goods like fruits and vegetables, flour and grains, and wine from region to region. Today, they are still used for tourists and serve as a reminder of the beautiful art and history of the Sicilian people. Our Sicilian cart wheel ornament features the same intricately detailed folk art and in your choice of three beautiful colors: Yellow, Orange, and Red.
This design is a Kenzies of London original, new for Winter 2022.
STORING GLASS BULBS
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.
Because of the nature of blown glass ornaments, 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.
