Introducing The 2024 Ohio Statehouse Limited Edition Ornament. 

The Great Seal of the State of Ohio has been in use since the early 19th century and has been redesigned numerous times throughout the decades. It has always featured the view of Mount Logan as it can be seen from Ohio's first capital, Chillicothe, with the sun rising behind the hills, casting light onto the foreground. There, the viewer will find a sheaf of wheat to represent the state's agriculture, and a gathering of 17 arrows to represent the fact that Ohio was the 17th state to enter the Union upon gaining statehood in 1803.

The painted glass Great Seal featured in the 2024 Holiday Ornament was designed by the Rossback Art C Glass Co. of Columbus, Ohio. It hung in the rotunda of the Ohio Statehouse from 1924 until it was removed and dismantled in the 1960s. It remained boxed up in a closet for decades, where it was completely forgotten. Upon its rediscovery during the Capitol Revival of 1989-1996, it was restored and installed in the original Statehouse Museum Store, in the space that is currently occupied by the Salmon P. Chase Education Center. Today it provides a breathtaking and appropriate backdrop to the original Ohio Constitution documents that reside in a case placed just in front of this historical seal.

I have been collecting the Statehouse ornament since 1995. Two ornaments each year, one for each child. The Stained glass ornament design selected for 2024 is particularly nice. I am now living in Colorado so having the ability to order on line was a big help to keep our family tradition going.

Beautiful Ornament-

The 2024 Ohio Statehouse ornament is beautiful.
The Great Seal of the State of Ohio is centered and the metal edge is delicately etched. Hang the ornament in front of a light or in a window so the translucent center is illuminated. The ornament is a perfect size. Wonderful historical keepsake.

Statehouse Christmas ornament

The 2024 Statehouse Christmas ornament is beautiful!
It’s an ornament that our grandchildren will cherish. It will hold memories of their Statehouse visit with their grandfather who was a former legislator.
