Polish Glass Ornaments by Patience Brewster

This year I did some extra searching and found Sears offers the Polish ornaments online. This is a good choice for those in the points program at Sears. Your PB purchase will give you point earnings.

If you are looking for the designer's other issues, like the newly designed resin, and table top Reindeer sets including Santa, Twelve Days of Christmas Piper set and mini ornament set, Sears, the old department store from another century, has over a hundred Brewster items at very good prices. Even view some old Department 56 PB items. You get points for each of your purchases.

In the video Patience gives all the details and shows the many steps going into the making of the new Polish glass ornaments, including the firing, dipping in silver nitrate, and hand painting of each individual piece. She enjoyed picking the many colors of glass paints. Glitter and iridescent colors are used on some styles.  

The new Polish ornaments were first packaged and offered in 2012. Note the model or product ID is 08-307XX or 08307XX. Two new styles for 2013 are model numbers 08-30852 and 08-30851 for a red heart and a Santa.

Model numbers are very important for those of you who need pieces made in a particular year.

Older glass would have different ID's and are not the new designs Made in Poland. The Brewster family interfaced personally with artists in Poland to produce the all new designs. Working with the artists one on one is a new direction she decided to peruse herself a few years ago.

Attention to detail, researching and artist collaboration will make your collection a family heirloom. A fun 21st century example of the designs prevalent in our times for the family to admire in the years to come.
