Christmas Decorations - Pyramids
Inspired by the shape of the Christmas tree, these beautiful Christmas decorations were first made in the Erzgebirge (Ore Mountains) region of Germany, originating in the 12th Century. Miners work underground was hard, and the wages low, so to supplement their wages the miners began to carve beautiful ornaments during the long winter nights. As the hot air rises from the candles, the pyramid slowly turns for a beautiful Christmas display.
