Knitted Christmas Bauble with Jumis Symbol, Red

A Symbol of Prosperity on Your Christmas Tree

This knitted Christmas bauble comes in deep red with a white Jumis symbol and hangs from a braided cord loop. It looks like a tiny piece of a warm winter jumper and gives your tree a cosy Latvian feel.

Jumis is one of the oldest Latvian symbols – a sign of fertility, a rich harvest and prosperity. On the Christmas tree, it symbolically wishes the family well-being and a full home in the year ahead.

Unlike glass baubles, a knitted one won’t break, so it is safe in homes with small children or pets. Hang it not only on the tree but also by a window, on a door handle or on a gift wrapping.

It makes a lovely small gift for a colleague, friend or teacher, as well as a heartfelt addition to a Christmas gift set. For visitors from abroad, it will be a keepsake from Latvia with an ancient Latvian symbol that brings back memories of Christmas in Riga every year.

Care: if needed, wipe with a damp cloth; do not machine wash.

Please note: the colour may look slightly different on different screens. [If hand-knitted: each bauble is knitted by hand, so the pattern may vary slightly – this is a sign of handmade work, not a defect.]
