Designed by Melissa Byrne and handmade in Europe, JingleNog ornaments pair irresistible charm with exceptional craftsmanship. Each heirloom-quality ornament is exquisitely mouthblown from fine glass, painted by hand and lined in sterling silver. Wonderful for collecting or giving, they bring spectacular shimmer to the season.
Arriving in a box ready for gift-giving, each ornament also comes with its own enchanting story. Grampy's story: Grampy is a gifted mathematician, able to calculate and reason. It was because of his gift for math, one year he held the position of Navigator of Christmas Path. Everyone was ill one Christmas Eve with fevers and colds, a new flight crew was required we are told, so the best were pulled from Lapland, the Americas and the Poles. To every chimney they flew, re-looping around in loopdy-doos. When they finally arrive home at dawn, Santa said with a yawn. “Incomplete deliveries we feared. It was the longest ride of any year!” Grampy agreed and gave Claus a present he had carefully wrapped, a brass compass with speedometer that now stays in the sleigh’s sack. From that Christmas on, Santa follows the straightest way home.
