This Mosser Glass Christmas Tree – 5.5″ Red is not only a beautiful holiday decoration or centerpiece, but a future family heirloom. Each tree is handmade in Cambridge, Ohio by Mosser’s glass artisans in a traditional process that includes pouring molten glass into vintage cast iron molds, and hand pressing and shaping each piece. Height: 5.5″The origins of this family owned business go back more than half a century when Orie Mosser was the plant manager of the Cambridge Glass Company in Cambridge, Ohio. His son Thomas began working there as a teenager, learning the trade from the ground up. When Cambridge Glass closed in 1954, he decided to continue in the glass business building a company of his own. By 1971 he established Mosser Glass with a product line that blends new designs with timeless classics. Mosser is now the last hand-pressed glass manufacturer in the United States.
