There are several symbols that are associated with christmas religious ornaments.  One of the most popular is the christmas star that is placed at the top of the tree.  This represents the star that guided the Three Wise Men of the Bible to Bethlehem.  Crosses and the peace dove, which represents the Archangel Gabriel, are also popular religious decoration themes.  Images of the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Christ, either as plasticized disks or plaster cast sculptures can also be hung from the Christmas tree.

Nativity scenes are also standard Christmas religious ornaments.  These are small figurines that represent all present during the birth of Christ in Bethlehem.  Nativity scenes are available in all sizes and materials - everything from life size plastic statues to be place don the front lawn to tiny china figurines to be placed on a mantelpiece.  However the most common nativity scene that you will find is probably the wooden nativity scene, which is usually placed beneath the christmas tree.

The most valuable cherub and angel ornaments are those that are made of hand blown glass or created from crystal.  Many modern artists also enjoy hand painting a new cherub ornament every year to offer to individuals who are fond of their style of graphic art.
