Meet Dasher, a darling little Dachshund with a heart full of Christmas spirit, a particular weakness for buttery shortbread, and an unfortunate talent for getting himself into the most extraordinary tangles. Every December, Dasher appoints himself Chief Assistant of Christmas Wrapping, a position for which he has boundless enthusiasm but very little practical ability.

With his long little body and curious nose, Dasher can usually be found amongst the ribbons, tissue paper, and half-wrapped parcels, often emerging with a magnificent bow tangled around his ears and several yards of ribbon trailing behind him. His assistance rarely makes the wrapping go any faster, but he is such a lovable fellow that nobody has the heart to dismiss him. Besides, he insists that a proper Christmas wrapping session simply cannot be completed without a generous supply of shortbread, a tradition he is more than happy to oversee.

Nestled inside a genuine oyster shell gathered from the sparkling coastal waters of British Columbia, this handcrafted ornament celebrates cherished traditions, treasured memories and the joy of keeping old stories alive for generations to come. Whether displayed on a Christmas tree, woven through garland, tucked into a wreath, or styled on a festive holiday table, it is a treasured keepsake designed to be cherished for generations.

Please Note

Every ornament we create is handcrafted using a genuine Pacific oyster shell, making each one completely unique. No two shells are ever exactly alike. They naturally vary in shape, size, depth, colour, and character, which is part of what makes each ornament so special.

The ornament you receive will not be the exact shell shown in our photographs. Instead, we thoughtfully select a shell that beautifully complements the artwork, carefully pairing each design with the natural shape and contours of the shell to create a balanced and harmonious keepsake. While every ornament may differ slightly in appearance, you can be assured that the same attention to detail, craftsmanship, and quality goes into every piece we create. Your ornament will be a one-of-a-kind heirloom, handcrafted exclusively for you.

Our Gilded Oyster Holiday Ornaments add a touch of whimsical woodland charm to your holiday décor with our Gilded Oyster Storybook Owls Ornament Collection.

Beautifully suited to a holiday tree, draped along garland, tucked into wreaths, or hung from doorknobs and drawer pulls, these enchanting ornaments offer endless possibilities for styling, displaying, and gifting.

Each oyster shell is sourced from the stunning coastal waters of British Columbia, Canada. No oysters are harvested specifically for our ornaments. Instead, the shells are thoughtfully reclaimed and lovingly repurposed into something truly special for the home.

Our 2026 Holiday Ornament Collection is handmade from start to finish in our British Columbia studio. While the artwork remains consistent within each design, every oyster shell is naturally unique in shape, texture, and size, ranging from approximately 3.5 to 5.5 inches long.

Each ornament is adorned with antique, vintage-inspired, or whimsical holiday imagery, then carefully hand-gilded along the edges and reverse using our proprietary 14k gold painting medium. They also include a burnished gold double faced satin ribbon for hanging. The result is a miniature work of art and a future heirloom to be treasured for many holiday seasons to come.

These ornaments make unforgettable gifts, thoughtful hostess presents, or beautiful keepsakes to add to your own collection and pass down through the years.

Packaging

Each ornament is presented in a soft drawstring dust cover and placed inside a 4 x 4-inch eco-friendly gift box. The box is tied with ribbon and finished with artisan details inside the lid, making it beautifully presented and ready for gifting.
