Christmas Trees

Christmas trees for displays during the holidays are one of the most popular emblems of the Yuletide season for a variety of historical and cultural reasons. The tradition of using evergreen trees to symbolize eternal life and renewal was a custom of ancient peoples the world over. This symbolism was later adopted by Christians in the west. Thus, the modern Christmas tree carries meanings both religious and secular. While live Christmas trees remain popular for both indoor and outdoor displays, nowadays metal and fiberglass Christmas trees and other stylized Christmas trees are gaining in popularity.

The History of Christmas Trees for Displays

The symbolism of the Christmas tree is steeped in history, with traditions varying among different cultures and religions. Here are a few interpretations:

The use of evergreen trees, wreaths, and garlands to symbolize eternal life and renewal was a custom among ancient Egyptians, Chinese, and Hebrews.

In Christianity, the branches and shrubs of the Christmas tree are viewed as an emblem of rebirth and immortality.

The pagan inhabitants of northern Europe would bring fir trees into their homes at Yuletide because it represented everlasting life and fertility.

Decorations such as Christmas tree lights and ornaments came to represent the stars and planets in the sky. An angel or star might be placed at the top of the tree to represent the Angel Gabriel or the Star of Bethlehem, respectively, from the Biblical Nativity story.

Contemporary treatments, using modern materials and industrial processes, have led to the advent of aluminum Christmas trees, fiberglass Christmas trees, and other types of attractive, stylized Christmas trees.

Whatever its shape, size, or material, the Christmas tree remains a symbol of life, celebration, and hope across different cultures and religions worldwide.
