Imagine a sprinkle of holiday magic adorning your Christmas tree this season with the enchanting Polish Pottery Ornament, Gingerbread Girl by Galia. Crafted in the heartwarming "Winter Wreath" pattern, this delightful ornament captures the essence of Christmas with its festive green backdrop and playful accents of blue and red.

This adorable 3.5" gingerbread girl is not just a treat for the eyes but a masterpiece of craftsmanship, brought to life in the historic town of Boleslawiec, Poland. Local artisans, employing the ancient "punching" technique, meticulously hand-stamp each design, making every ornament a unique piece of art. Although the patterns fall into the 'traditional' category, known for their simplicity and unlimited production, the personal touch of different artists ensures that no two ornaments are exactly alike. The variations in design reflect a rich tapestry of creative expression, each one telling its own little story.

Not only are these ornaments a visual delight, but they are also built to last. Made from high-quality materials, they are tough, durable, and resistant to chipping. Completely free of lead, nickel, and cadmium, they are as safe as they are beautiful. Whether you're continuing a family tradition or starting a new one, these ornaments are perfect for adding a splash of color and a dash of Polish heritage to your festive celebrations. Mix and match with other pieces from the Galia collection to create a stunning display that is sure to captivate and charm every guest this holiday season.

Cleaning 

Polish Pottery is Dishwasher safe! Or, clean by hand using regular dish soap and scrub brush. 

Guidelines to keep your pottery in excellent condition:

You may safely use Polish pottery in the microwave and in a conventional oven at temperatures up to 425°F. We recommend you heat your stoneware up to temperature with the oven. Make sure to always cover the entire bottom of the dish when baking. For example, you don't want to put a single chicken breast in the center of a baker and leave the rest of the surface area uncovered, as the empty spots will heat at a different rate than those with food on them. Polish pottery does not like quick changes in temperature or uneven heat sources, and thermal shock WILL result in a broken dish.

Never place your pottery directly on a hot stovetop burner! 

While Polish pottery is extremely durable, it should not be taken directly from the freezer and placed into a hot oven. In addition, cold water or frozen food should not be placed in a hot piece of pottery. Always allow cooling or warming to room temperatures before heating in an oven or placing in a freezer. If taken care of properly, your Polish pottery can last for generations!
