James Madison Ornament

The Limited Edition of just 38 numbered pieces of the James Madison Ornament is made from the Belle Grove Mulberry Tree that welcomed visitors as they approached the Birthplace of James Madison: Belle Grove Plantation entrance for more than 200 years.  Present from colonial times, the Belle Grove Mulberry Tree bore witness from America’s Revolutionary period, stood while the White House burned during the War of 1812 while James Madison served as our 4th President, saw both Union and Confederate troops crisscross her grounds during the Civil War, witnessed the pursuit of America’s most notorious assassin, and saw innumerable innovations, inventions and changes to our culture and way of life through the 20th century and into the 21st century, until she succumbed to disease and had to be removed in May 2013. The James Madison Ornament was cut and engraved with an image of our 4th President on the front and a brief provenance as well as the edition number and the piece number of the edition.  What a great way to show your pride in America by owning and displaying this Limited Edition ornament of a Founding Father, President, and Father of both the Constitution and Bill of Rights!, This is a rare opportunity to own a one of a kind, handcrafted piece of art, an heirloom that can be passed down to the next generation only adding to the history that the "Witness Tree" that was the Belle Grove Mulberry has already absorbed! -------------------- All ornaments are made in America.
