Christmas Sheep Ornaments
Cute sheep for a cosy Christmas
Probably the most popular animal symbol among Christmas decorations is the sheep. This is not surprising, because Jesus was born surrounded by sheep and his first crib was a manger in a sheep's stable. It is since then people have been decorating both Christmas trees and nativity scenes with sheep at Christmas. They can be of any kind: glass, papier-mâché, and, of course, wooden. We offer such unique hand-painted wooden decorations in our shop. Each handcrafted sheep is made by a Ukrainian artisan from the Petrykivka village, and the folk craft with the same name has been known for centuries and is even on the UNESCO Intangible Heritage List.
What makes Petrykivka sheep stand out
In addition to being a unique piece of art and being highly appreciated by collectors of vintage items, our sheep have several additional advantages:
- All materials are completely safe for children, pets, and the environment. The wooden base is natural, the honey-based paints are made according to ancient recipes, and several layers of varnish are carefully dried.
- The sheep figurine is flat and weighs almost nothing. It is easy to send to friends and family around the world, it will not weigh down the Christmas tree branch, and it is almost impossible to break or damage the wooden beauty.
- Funny sheep can be easily combined into sets. You can complement them with other animals, or just assemble a colorful flock.
- Each piece of ornament is painted on both sides, so no matter how you turn it, it won't spoil the view. You can also decorate not only a Christmas tree with sheep but also a garden or a country house in a vintage style.
