Old World Christmas Robin Ornament
The Old World Robin Ornament is steeped in legend, with a tale that suggests robins gained their red breasts on the first Christmas. As the story goes, a robin witnessed the Christ Child shivering near a dying fire. Moved by compassion, the bird flew close and began fanning the embers with its wings. In the process, the heat of the flames turned the robin's breast a vibrant red, forever marking it as a symbol of warmth and kindness.
