The first artifical Christmas tree!
Artificial Christmas trees were first produced over 100 years ago. At the latter part of the 19th century, Christmas trees were becoming ever popular for the celebration. However, there was a growing concern that the forestland was being depleted of trees, especially during the holiday season. With the advent of the “Goosefeather” Christmas tree, some of the problems concerning deforestation were solved.
Feather trees were the first artificial Christmas trees made in Germany to resemble the white pines of the German forestland. They have wide spacing between their branches which makes them great for showing off Christmas ornaments!
Produced in the USA for Old World Christmas by The Feather Tree Company, this nostalgic, high quality reproduction tree is made using actual goosefeathers. "Green Feather Tree" measures 18” and its strong wires and extra sprouts will support many of your favorite ornaments. This nostalgic tree is anchored by a bright red wooden “spool” base and the tree’s feathers are died a wonderful deep green to give it a festive, old-fashioned look.
