2016 WI State Capitol Ornament Features Supreme Court Hearing Room
Looking for a holiday gift for the attorney on your list? This year’s Wisconsin State Capitol Ornament features the beautiful State Supreme Court Hearing Room.
According to The Third Branch, newsletter of the Wisconsin Judiciary, the ornament “is a replica design of the most prominent
features of the Wisconsin Supreme Court Hearing Room,
including The Signing of the Constitution, the carved
mahogany judicial bench, and pilasters of Italian Breche
Coraline marble.”
Since 2004, the proceeds from ornament sales have
supported over $70,000 in restoration projects around the
Capitol building. Previous ornament sales have helped to
fund the visitor’s bird’s-eye view from the glass perch inside
the dome of the State Capitol.
The State Capitol Ornament is presented by the Wisconsin Historical Foundation and is available for purchase from the Wisconsin Historical Society.
