2004 KG Historical Society Metal Christmas Ornament – Berry Plain
This elegant metal ornament honors Berry Plain, one of King George County’s most distinguished colonial-era estates. Built around 1720, Berry Plain is an exceptional example of early 18th-century Tidewater Virginia architecture, notable for its Flemish-bond brickwork, gabled roof, and symmetrical design.
 
Overlooking the Rappahannock River, the plantation has long been admired for its refined craftsmanship and historic charm. Berry Plain also holds significance for its connection to the region’s agricultural heritage and its role in the early settlement patterns of the county.
Chosen as the 2004 subject in the King George Historical Society’s collectible ornament series, this piece captures the enduring elegance of Berry Plain and its place in local history. It is a meaningful keepsake for collectors, architectural enthusiasts, and anyone who treasures Virginia’s rich colonial legacy.
