Christopher Radko has been credited, and rightly so, with helping to revive the glass ornament industry. Although glass ornaments have been produced for many years, it was Radko who brought them back into the homes of collectors across the country with his strong marketing approach and unusual (at the time) pieces. Today glass ornaments are more popular than ever with many companies bringing their individual touch to the market.

Radko was also one of the first ornament companies to design a large variety of patriotic blown glass pieces, even before Patriotic was "fashionable".

Several years ago Radko broke into the home decorative market with ceramic and porcelain items, that have also caught the attention of collectors. Cookie jars, salt & peppers, snowglobes all have the Radko touch -- very intricately detailed, embellishments and touches of gold. The cookie jars are pricey, no doubt about it. They are also very large and need a special spot for displaying, but for many collectors the impact is worth it.

And if you so choose, there is even a place to put cookies! Learn more:
