Eagle with Shield ornament

The bald eagle was chosen as a national emblem by the Second Continental Congress in 1782. For over 200 years, the bald eagle has symbolized what America stands for: Freedom, Courage, Strength, Justice and Excellence. The image of the bald eagle has a special meaning for many Americans and represents the determination of our country.

A hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside the molds then ornaments are hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations.
