Golden hair match a golden horn of plenty and the golden touches that decorate this Cornucopia Angel ornament.

The horn of Amalthea — the goat that suckled Zeus, king of the gods — was broken off by him when a child and became the magnificent Cornucopia, theHorn of Plenty.Mythology tells us that cornucopia filled with food and drink whenever the child-god desired it. This imagery has been brought down to us in the form of a horn brimming with festive fruits and vegetables.
As such, cornucopias have come to symbolize abundance and good fortune. In fact, in Roman times, the goddess Fortuna was depicted carrying a horn of plenty.
And so our Cornucopia Angel carries on this long tradition of abundance and good fortune.
