Salamander Ornament
by Old World Christmas

From Old World Christmas. A variety of animals use their bright coloring to imitate the appearance of poisonous animals, but in this case this spotted Salamander isn't doing it just for show! Due to a mix of their toxic and amphibious nature, salamanders across time have inspired legends of being able to put out or control fire! Chosen as the symbol of firefighters, for this very reason, the humble salamander has even been placed alongside dragons in tales and folklore. Sitting happily on his little glittery rock, this guy is unlikely to burst into flames any time soon! This fantastical creature will be a wonderful addition to your Christmas tree!
