Long ago, ship builders coated their hats in pitch and left them in the sun to cure. The hats hardened and served to protect the workers’ heads during dangerous work. Today’s const ruction helmets have evolved and have become a symbol of construction. This whimsical glass ornament was carefully mouth-blown into a finely crafted mold. Then a hot solution of liquid silver was poured inside. Finally, the ornament was delicately hand-painted with many brightly colored lacquers and glitters for you to enjoy! Ships in safe packaging with a keepsake box to store for years to come. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
