This year's U.S. Capitol Historical Society annual ornament embraces the spirit of American history and pays homage to the grandeur of the U.S. Capitol Building. The ornament on the left features elegant jeweled details. The ornament on the right highlights beautiful historic marble removed from the Capitol's East Front Steps during the 1990s renovation. These enchanting pieces capture the essence of Washington, D.C.'s winter wonder. We invite you to adorn your home with a touch of patriotic elegance and timeless charm. Every ornament ships in a keepsake box with a ribbon for hanging. Pre ordered ornaments will ship in late summer, early fall.
