History and Craftsmanship

The tradition of ornament-making has deep roots in Germany, dating back to the 16th century. Glassblowers in the Bavarian region were among the first to create delicate ornaments to adorn Christmas trees, a practice that quickly spread throughout Europe and the world.

At Frankenmuth Clock Company, we honor this rich history by sourcing authentic ornaments crafted by skilled artisans. Each piece is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship:

• Handcrafted Excellence: Artisans use age-old techniques, from mouth-blown glass shaping to detailed hand-painting.

• Premium Materials: High-quality wood, glass, and metals are carefully selected for durability and beauty.

• Bavarian Influence: Many designs feature traditional German motifs, bringing a touch of Old-World charm to your holiday décor.

These ornaments are more than decorations—they’re symbols of cultural heritage and artistry that bring beauty and meaning to your celebrations.

Maintenance and Care

Proper care will keep your ornaments looking pristine for years to come. Follow these tips to preserve their beauty:

• Handling: Always handle delicate ornaments with care, holding them by sturdier parts rather than thin or fragile areas.

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently clean your ornaments. For glass pieces, avoid water or cleaning products that could damage the paint or finish.

• Storage: Wrap ornaments individually in tissue paper or padded boxes to protect them from scratches, moisture, or accidental breaks.

• Environment: Store ornaments in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading or warping.

With these simple steps, your ornaments will remain beautiful heirlooms that you can enjoy for many holiday seasons to come.
