Item Description
A wonderful addition to your christmas tree or a beautiful gift to a loved one.
Zinn Brilliant ornaments sprang from the inventive imagination of 19th-century confectioner, inventor and businessman Gustav A. Mayer, who created the process and the molds for making these highly reflective ornaments in the 1880s.
To the best of our knowledge, while similar ornaments were made in Europe at the time, Mr. Mayer was the only manufacturer who created this type of tin ornament in the United States.
The Best of Holidays Past and Present
A century after the ornaments’ invention, artisans William and Janet Rigby are dedicated to creating holiday décor that recalls a time before impersonal mass production and celebrates the genuine light and warmth of the season.
In their Cooperstown, NY, workshop, the Rigbys have perfected their own artistic technique, combining carefully researched historic elements with modern, sustainable materials.
