Traditional German Christmas Pickle Vintage Style - German Glass Ornament Christmas Collection

Christmas Pickle 🥒🎄✨

Shhh… somewhere in the tree, the Christmas pickle is hiding. The game? Whoever finds it first on Christmas morning wins bragging rights, a special little gift, and — if the legend is true — a whole year of good luck! 🍀

The story of the pickle has been told for generations. Some say it was born in Germany, where glassblowers in Lauscha — the birthplace of Christmas ornaments — first crafted sparkling pickles alongside their baubles. Others believe it’s an American tall tale that became too fun not to play. Either way, the tradition has stuck (just like a pickle in a tree!).

Each of our glass pickles is hand-painted and patinated in our Steinach workshop, making every one slightly different and full of personality. And because a pickle deserves nothing less, it comes packaged inside a 16 oz vintage-style canning jar — ready to gift, display, or surprise your friends and family with an extra laugh.

Hang one on your tree this year and see who finds the pickle first — laughter, luck, and a little holiday mischief included!
