With our innovative brand Christborn®, we give new luster to old traditions by translating selected trends from fashion and design into modern collections. 

As a trendsetter, we are constantly setting new standards and always remain true to our credo:  
“Sophistication comes from combining style and craftsmanship.”

Waltraud Wegner – Head of Design & Marketing

Every piece of art and jewelry from Christborn® expresses this through our commitment to the highest quality, innovation and craftsmanship.
Tradition meets innovation – values that last for generations
As family and a family business, we have committed ourselves to preserving a valuable cultural asset in order to preserve it for future generations.

Our high-quality Christmas decorations, made of hand-blown and hand-painted glass, have been bringing light and warmth to the dark winter and festive Christmas season for generations.

Our self-conception for highest quality made in Germany and German craftsmanship would completely contradict an industrial production of machine balls.

That is why, we still rely on traditional handicraft techniques today. 
Despite our belief in keeping traditions, we are just as proud of our culture of innovation and have over 220 brilliant colours and well over 10,000 unique designs and shapes.

Our designers are always inspired by the latest developments in fashion and lifestyle, setting extraordinary new trends and standards year after year.
Craftsmanship Rooted in Tradition
Every Christborn® bauble and shaped ornament is handcrafted exclusively from mouthblown glass.
We begin with delicate, thin-walled glass blanks.

Our experienced glassblowers heat these blanks in a flame and free-blow them into baubles and other shapes, including bells, icicles and tree toppers.

More intricate figures and ornaments, such as stars, hearts, birds and angels, are blown into special metal or ceramic moulds. These designs and the tools used to create them are developed by our in-house design and development team.

The glass ornaments are silvered on the inside with pure silver, giving them their beautiful lustre. They are then coloured, painted and intricately decorated with a variety of distinctive materials, including genuine Swarovski® crystals.
Christborn® Quality & Design. Always.
Christborn® has always stood for exceptional quality and distinctive design.

To meet growing demand while preserving our high standards, we established a joint venture with our longstanding partner in western Ukraine in 2005, adding production capacity alongside our existing factory in Germany.

For more than 20 years, we have worked closely with our Ukrainian team, sharing expertise and continuously developing our painters’ skills. Both production sites uphold the same exacting Christborn® quality standards.

Our promise: every piece is inspected by our quality control team in Germany before being shipped to our customers around the world.
