Battle of Bunker Hill Commemorative Ornament

This finely crafted America 250 ornament commemorates the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, spanning from 1776 to 2026, and honors the pivotal Battle of Bunker Hill fought on June 17, 1775. At the center of the design is a vivid depiction of the battle, capturing colonial militia standing firm against British regulars in one of the earliest and most consequential confrontations of the war.

Flanking the central artwork are two historically significant flags that reflect the reality of the moment rather than symbols added in hindsight. On the left is the British Union Flag, representing the Crown and the imperial forces engaged in the conflict. On the right is the New England flag, distinguished by its red St. George,s Cross on a white field with a green pine tree in the canton, a symbol widely associated with the colonial forces present at Bunker Hill. Together, the flags emphasize that this battle occurred before independence was formally declared, underscoring the tension of a nation not yet fully defined.

Above the scene, an eagle with outstretched wings symbolizes the emergence of a new national identity, while banners marked "1776" and "2026" frame the long arc of American history from founding to the present day. Crossed muskets beneath the artwork represent the citizen soldiers who took up arms, and the laurel branches below honor sacrifice, perseverance, and the enduring ideals born from the struggle.

The ornament is finished in a 14 karat gold finish with richly colored enamel accents. Its layered construction and sculpted detailing give the piece depth, clarity, and visual presence. Designed for both holiday display and year round appreciation, this ornament serves as a meaningful tribute to the courage and conviction that shaped the nation,s beginnings.
