Content & Subject

The Frosty Family Christmas Ornament by P. Buckley Moss is a numbered, limited edition porcelain ornament from the Moss Ornament Collection and Moss Religious Collection. This heartwarming design captures the joy, innocence, and togetherness that define the Christmas season—brought to life through Moss’s signature folk-art charm and gentle humor.

At the center of the scene, a trio of cheerful snowmen gathers hand-in-hand around a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, topped with a radiant star. Their bright scarves and cozy hats swirl with movement, while cardinals perch among the branches—symbols of love and faith that appear often in Moss’s winter artwork. The snow-covered landscape stretches softly behind them, glowing under the gentle shimmer of holiday light.

Each Frosty Family Christmas Ornament is delicately crafted of fine porcelain, hand-numbered, and gift boxed for presentation. It includes a gold cord for hanging on your Christmas tree or may be displayed all year on a tiny easel (sold separately).
