This custom crafted collectible is etched from art work provided by Eastern National in plate palladium. Each medallion is made in the USA and comes with a certificate of authenticity, individually numbered as part of a 20,000 unit limited edition run. This decorative ornament would be perfect to hang from your mirror as you drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway, reflect on your journeys as it glistens from a window, wear around your neck to show your support of the Blue Ridge Parkway or for annual enjoyment as it hangs from your Christmas tree.

Inside the cover of the protective box is a bit of information of the significance of the ornament's logo:
Beyond the Winding Road
Its official logo suggests that the Blue Ridge Parkway is a gently winding, treelined raod through scenic mountains. It is that and more. Created in the Depression days of the 1930's, the Blue Ridge Parkway was the nation's first rural parkway. Standards for road design and engineering were pioneered here. It is also the nation's longest parkway, stretching 469 miles to connect the Shenandoah National Park in Virginia with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina
Besides its many panoramic vistas, the Parkway preserves diverse natural resources and remnants of Appalachian regional culture. Not least of all, it provides abundant opportunities for hiking, camping, and other recreational activities. In short, the Parkway is both a place to visit and to see, a place to explore and discover.
