**"Flying High on the High Wheel Bike" Brass Ornament**
Capture the charm and nostalgia of a bygone era with this "Flying High on the High Wheel Bike" ornament. Etched on a thick sheet of brass, this intricate design features an old-timey cyclist sporting a top hat, riding a classic high wheel bicycle. Scattered around the cyclist are hand-drawn, pierced stars, which shimmer and shine when the ornament is hung on a lit tree, adding a magical glow to your holiday decor.
The high wheel bike is a quirky favorite in the artist’s hometown of Frederick, Maryland, where you can often see riders cruising through downtown. Every summer, the city hosts a popular high wheel bicycle race, attracting enthusiasts from across the country. This ornament pays tribute to that unique local tradition, making it the perfect keepsake for anyone who has visited or lives in Frederick, or simply appreciates the charm of vintage cycling.
Suspended on a long steel wire, this ornament is ready to hang on your tree or be displayed year-round as a whimsical reminder of Frederick’s colorful history and the joy of a fun, funky ride.
