Pierogi Ornament

Pierogi appeared in Poland in the 13th century, and legend has it that St. Hyacinth (the patron saint of the pierogi) brought the recipe back from Kiev, in modern day Ukraine. There are also whispers that Marco Polo brought pierogi to the western world from China during the same century. Polish pierogi started appearing in cookbooks in the 17th century.

However they were invented, these filled dumplings are adored around the world, particularly in the United States' "Pierogi Pocket", an area including New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Chicago, Detroit, parts of the northern Midwest and southern New England which accounts for 68 percent of annual US pierogi consumption.

If you (or someone you know) is a fan of these delectable dumplings, then this is the ornament for you (or them!). Makes a great, fun gift. Each piece is created entirely by hand during a seven day production process creating an heirloom to be cherished for many years to come.
