I flipped on the TV earlier today and stopped on a Travel Channel show. The program was exploring different areas of the world, particularly in the US, where Christmas is never white and always warm. During the show they interviewed random people who either live in or frequent various communities.

One of the communities they visited was San Antonio, Texas, where there is an annual holiday boutique. As it turned out, many of the shoppers were in search of holiday angels to give either as gifts to others or to purchase for their own home décor.

Angels are and have long been a symbol of the holidays and can be seen in stores, offices and homes everywhere. If you’re searching for the perfect gift, you may have found it in this gorgeous little baby angel figurine.

The auction on this piece reads, “Inspired by the great Italian painting and sculpture allegories which adorn cathedral ceilings, Lalique has created this mischievous winged Cherub, gracefully sculpted in stained crystal.”
