About the Item
This charming 1979 sterling silver Christmas ornament by Towle Silversmiths beautifully captures the warmth and nostalgia of traditional holiday celebrations. Featuring a dual-sided design—one symbolic and one narrative—this piece exemplifies Towle’s hallmark craftsmanship and artistic storytelling.
🎄 Front Design — Classic Holly
Berries
The front of the ornament features a richly sculpted sprig of holly with berries, deeply engraved in a graceful botanical style. The raised leaves display crisp serrated edges and gentle shading, while the clusters of round berries add festive dimension.
The holly motif is framed within a classic oval border and marked:
Towle Sterling © 1979
A timeless emblem of Christmas cheer, holly has symbolized joy and protection since ancient times—making it a fitting front for this seasonal keepsake.
❄️ Reverse Design — “Deck the Halls” Winter Scene
The reverse side brings the beloved carol “Deck the Halls” to life with a beautifully engraved winter landscape:
A cozy farmhouse with smoke curling from the chimney
Snow-covered hills rolling gently into the distance
Evergreen trees clustered throughout the scene
A treble clef and the opening musical notes of “Deck the Halls with Boughs of Holly” engraved across the top
The iconic “Fa la la la la…” etched along the bottom with matching musical notation
This festive tableau evokes the serenity of a quiet winter’s evening and the joyful energy of holiday music.
💎 Solid Sterling Silver Craftsmanship
Crafted in solid sterling silver (.925), the ornament has a smooth, mirror-bright finish and a satisfying weight. Towle’s engraving captures fine details with clarity—from the veins in the holly leaves to the musical notes on the staff.
🎁 A Collectible Heirloom
Towle’s annual Christmas ornaments are cherished among collectors, and the 1979 edition is especially desirable for its combination of botanical beauty and musical nostalgia. It makes a lovely addition to any holiday décor or a thoughtful, meaningful gift.
✨ A Celebration of Song, Snow, and Holiday Tradition
From its elegant holly motif to its heartwarming winter village and musical engraving, this sterling silver Towle ornament embodies the timeless spirit of Christmas—joyous, peaceful, and full of song.
