Old World Christmas is the premier brand of Christmas ornaments in the country. The founders, Tim and Beth Merck, a couple who shared a special love for Christmas, are credited with revitalizing the art of mouth-blown fine glass ornaments as a result of their reintroducing figurative designs to the United States in 1979.
Today, Old World Christmas offers the most extensive and best-loved collection with nearly 2,000 proprietary designs in styles ranging from traditional to whimsical. This Ornament shows a bay horse in English-style tack, frozen mid step as if in a Dressage show.
Dressage displays the power, obedience, strength and intelligence of a horse and its rider. Riders and horses complete a sequence or a freestyle event. Dressage freestyle is often called Dancing on "Horseback". The sport of dressage is formal, requiring years of training for the horse and rider to competitively participate.
