Tom Turkey Ornament
by Old World Christmas

From Old World Christmas. The Turkey symbolizes altruism and self-sacrifice. It is the centerpiece of today's Thanksgiving dinner, which commemorates the first Thanksgiving in 1621, when the Pilgrims and Native Americans shared a harvest meal. Ben Franklin championed the turkey as our national symbol, but the bald eagle won! This glass Tom Turkey ornament reminds us of how gorgeous these birds actually are, with their red heads and neck, and iridescent feathers represented as glittered and textured glass.
