This charming 4" hand-painted glass ornament, shaped like a shiny green pickle, has one eye and also wears an adorable red Santa hat trimmed with fuzzy white fur. The pickle grins enthusiastically at you from between your Christmas lights, hidden in the depths of the tree, just as happy about the holidays as you are. The Christmas pickle, or Weihnachtsgurke, is an Old-World German tradition. On Christmas Eve the pickle is hidden on the tree and waits to be found in the morning. Usually, a special gift is given to the first child to find the pickle.
