This ornament with two penguins bundled in a toy-laden sleigh is a Christopher Radko design, but it’s not the usual delicate blown glass. Instead, it’s ceramic and it weighs a ton. I always have to find a sturdy branch for it. You can see a lot of the cool Radko details, like the snow wake and those rosy cheeks. There must be other examples of Celebrations by Radko penguin ornaments, but this is the only one I’ve ever seen, live or online.
