Though this holiday... egghead? is quite intriguing:

And if you want more, more, more (in the spirit of the season, I guess), you might want to have a look at this commercial site of antique ornaments, where you'll find interesting items like the traditional holiday "Putz Wooly Sheep" (some loss of skin).

Cotton Gallery 5, second down on the right looks like a bunny with very, very short ears. I liked that site very much.

Heh. I think that must be the dread holiday Molebunny.

I came across quite a few bunnies while browsing old ornaments... I had no idea they were an even remotely popular Christmas item. Here's a sort of angry-looking one from a different site than two mentioned above (motka, Russian antiques).
