History of The Decorative Bauble / Christmas Ornament
The history of decorative baubles or ornaments dates back to 16th-century Germany, where it was a tradition to decorate fir trees with apples, nuts, and other fruits during the holiday season. However, as the Christmas tradition spread across Europe, other materials were used to decorate the trees, including glass, paper, and metal.
In the late 19th century, the glass bauble became the most popular type of ornament, as they were affordable to produce and came in a wide range of fun colours and designs. Glass baubles, at that time, were typically blown into a mould and then painted or decorated by hand.
During World War II, the production of glass ornaments was halted due to shortages of materials and labour. However, after the war, the tradition of decorating Christmas trees with ornaments thankfully continued, and new types of baubles were introduced, including plastic and metal.
Today, decorative baubles are an essential part of Christmas tree decorations, and they come in a wide variety of styles and designs, ranging from traditional to modern and from handmade to mass-produced. They also now come in a wide range of materials, colours, sizes and designs. Baubles that invite creativity are our favourite, which you’ll soon see.
What is a Photo Bauble?
The term bauble is used widely in the UK, NZ and Australia, it is however often baffling for those in the US! In the US we tend to refer to them simply as Christmas Ornaments.
A Photo Bauble is a type of decorative bauble or Christmas Ornament that features a photograph or image, usually of a loved one, a happy memory, or a furry friend. Photo baubles offer a unique way to personalise and add a special touch to your holiday decor or gift-giving.
Photo baubles are typically made of lightweight, shatterproof materials like acrylic, with a clear section where the photo is inserted. The photo can be easily swapped out, allowing for different images to be displayed year after year.
Our photo baubles come in a range of sizes and shapes, from traditional spherical ornaments to star-shaped designs. We also offer a wide range of materials, from glass ornaments to wooden ornaments. They can be hung on a Christmas tree, displayed on a wreath, or used as decoration on a gift package.
Photo baubles are a wonderful way to cherish and celebrate memories, and they make for a thoughtful and heartfelt gift for friends and family.
How are Christmas Photo Ornaments Manufactured?
Handvivo is unique in the way we manufacture Christmas Ornaments. The main process is fairly common – injection moulding. However, like photo keychains whilst the product may seem simple it is utilising very tight QC tolerances to ensure the parts fit together accurately. The mould tools have to be carefully maintained to retain a high gloss polish which enables the excellent clarity of the clear components. Also the high level of unique automation we have perfected over decades ensures that the product comes off the production line without blemishes.
Due to the unique design we have developed we protect it by registering the design.
