Strawberries have long been more than just a seasonal treat. In medieval Europe, they were served at royal banquets to symbolize peace and prosperity. Some churches even featured carved strawberries in their pillars, representing righteousness. In 19th-century France, newlyweds were served strawberry soup, as the fruit was believed to bring romance and happiness.
Despite being most commonly linked to sunny days, strawberries are a perfect choice for holiday décor given their vibrant red and green hues. A deep crimson color contrasts beautifully with the evergreen branches and a little complementary shimmer is added by the sparkling green cap. Allow it to evoke fond memories of berry picking, baking, and pleasant weather—or simply a novel approach to seasonal décor!
This strawberry hangs easily from trees, wreaths, or garlands. It’s a thoughtful gift for gardeners, fruit lovers, or anyone who enjoys unique decorations. Whether displayed during the holidays or year-round, this ornament brings a little taste of summer into any home, even in the middle of winter.
Text on Old World tag: In medieval Europe, strawberries were served at festivals and important state occasions to ensure peace and prosperity.
