Christopher Radko “Claus Encounters” Ornament (1011000)
Capture the magic of Christmas wonder with the enchanting Christopher Radko “Claus Encounters” ornament. This heartwarming design depicts Santa peeking through a frosty window, delighting a wide-eyed child on the other side. The scene is framed by a red brick archway adorned with a festive wreath, glittering snow, and a cozy evergreen tree — perfectly evoking the joy and anticipation of Christmas Eve.
I sold Christopher Radko Ornaments in my gift shop over 20 years ago. Since the shop closed I have had these carefully stored at my home.
According to the Christopher Radko Company, each of their designs begins as an intricate illustration created by Radko artists. Then the year-long process of sculpting, molding, and sampling begins. At the production stage, their family-owned European factories use centuries-old techniques to blow, silver, hand-lacquer and embellish each and every ornament. This process requires a full seven days to complete.
