Iron Maiden Number Of The Beast Christmas Ornament Ceramic Holiday Decoration Eddie Candle Flame Design Tree Ornament Collectible Gift For Heavy Metal Fans
This Iron Maiden Number Of The Beast Christmas Ornament represents a unique fusion of heavy metal heritage and holiday tradition, celebrating one of the most iconic albums in metal history. The Number of the Beast, released on March 22, 1982, stands as Iron Maiden’s third studio album and their most commercially successful release, reaching number one on the UK charts and achieving platinum certification in multiple countries including the United States, Australia, and the UK, with the album selling millions of copies worldwide and cementing Iron Maiden’s position as pioneers of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement. The ornament features Eddie, Iron Maiden’s legendary mascot created by artist Derek Riggs, who has become one of the most recognizable figures in rock music since his debut on the band’s 1980 self-titled album. The ceramic design specifically references the album’s controversial yet groundbreaking cover artwork, which depicts Eddie as a puppet master controlling Satan, while Satan simultaneously controls a smaller Eddie, creating a philosophical question about the nature of evil that manager Rod Smallwood described as “who’s the really evil one here? Who’s manipulating who?”. This original artwork was inspired by a Doctor Strange comic book featuring puppet-like manipulation, combined with imagery drawn from medieval European Christian art depicting hellish scenes, with Derek Riggs even adding a humorous touch by making Satan resemble Salvador Dalí. The candle flame design element on this ornament pays homage to the infernal imagery throughout the album artwork, which shows sinners burning in flames of hell across the background. Iron Maiden, founded in 1975 by bassist Steve Harris, has released seventeen studio albums and grown into one of the world’s most celebrated heavy metal bands, with The Number of the Beast remaining a cornerstone of their legacy. This collectible ornament serves as an essential piece for heavy metal enthusiasts who appreciate the band’s four-decade-plus legacy, combining holiday decoration with authentic rock memorabilia that honors both the album’s musical impact and Derek Riggs’ influential artistic vision that defined metal aesthetics throughout the 1980s. The ceramic construction ensures durability for years of display, making it a premium gift option for Iron Maiden collectors who value the band’s extensive merchandise tradition and cultural significance within heavy metal history.
