Christmas tree toppers are emblematic of a beautiful tradition that stretches back to the 19th century and continues to warm hearts today. Whoever is responsible for adding this final touch to the Christmas tree, the tree topper tradition brings the holiday spirit to any family. For the perfect Handmade Tree Toppers this Christmas, look no further than Wendell August Forge. Our collection of beautifully crafted, expertly forged handmade tree toppers displays stunning detail and genuine artistry. Our tree toppers will last a lifetime, looking beautiful throughout years of use. With an array of styles and shapes from which to choose, you’re certain to find a tree topper to love.
For instance, our star Christmas topper, crafted from hand-hammered aluminum. This beautiful, rustic star says that, throughout it all, the Christmas spirit survives, family survives, and love survives. No matter what blows come your way, this Christmas topper can endure them all, just as any family can. The durability of this star is a testament to the durability of family bonds, a celebration of Christmas, the holiday that, more than any other, honors the spirit of family.
Adorned with Swarovski crystals, our Angel of Harmony Christmas topper is a stunning addition to any Christmas tree. Designed by international artist Alex Konahin, this Christmas topper is perfect for those enlivened with the spirit of the holiday, for whom the words of Charles Dickens perfectly describe: “Time was, with most of us, when Christmas Day encircling all our limited world like a magic ring, left nothing out for us to miss or seek; bound together all our home enjoyments, affections, and hopes; grouped everything and everyone around the Christmas fire.” There is nothing more special than Christmastime, for those few weeks bring forth the greatest joy of our lives. And our Angel of Harmony Christmas topper is designed especially to bring forth great joy.
Traditionally, the star at the top of the Christmas tree symbolizes the Star of Bethlehem, which the three wise men followed in their pursuit of the child that had been born, Jesus of Nazareth. On this tree topper, you won’t find any plastic panels or dim lights. You won’t find any colored tinsel or balls of light. Instead, we’ve created a modern twist on the star by taking cues from one of winter’s most beautiful and intricate masterpieces: the snowflake. Each Snowflake Tree Topper, like its inspiration, is unique in and of itself. Its design is hand-hammered by the skilled artisans of Wendell August. This ensures that each is of the highest quality. We’ll send it to you in a handsome gift box that bears the same hammer marks as the piece we have created. This box is perfect for gift-giving, or storage between seasons.
As America’s oldest and largest forge, our quality is rooted in a century of Pennsylvanian craftsmanship. Since 1923, we have used hammers, fire, and metal to craft art. At Wendell August Forge, our mission is to help you celebrate by creating handmade tree toppers for you to treasure. Our craft is meaningful to us because life’s special moments are meaningful to you.
