Whether the unique ornament you give is a depiction of an angel, a ribbon, or the rose teapot from “Alice in Wonderland”, your recipient will realize that you picked out this ornament especially for them. ![]() The Christmas tree part of the traditional Christmas celebration in the United States originated in Germany—most of us have sung “O Tannenbaum” at one time or another. There are other Christmas standbys that come from German Europe as well—the blown glass ornaments, for one, and the tinsel for another—not to mention the nutcrackers! No matter where the glass balls that decorate much of your tree may have been made, the originals came from Germany. In the late 16th century, the small German town of Lauscha became renowned for its glassblowing. Glassmaking had been a part of the town as early as the 12th century. Lauscha would also produce drinking glasses, flasks, bowls, beads, and even glass eyes.
