A Christmas tree topper can give your tree a polished finishing touch – provided it suits the tree’s height, shape and weight. But people often choose one based only on its colour or glitter effect. This can lead to common problems: the topper tips over, looks out of proportion or cannot be attached securely.
This buying guide explains which factors matter when choosing a Christmas tree topper, a Christmas tree bow or another Christmas tree topper design. It focuses on clear, useful details such as dimensions, material, weight and intended use.
A 130 cm-long tree topper might look oversized on a small living room tree, but could be just right on a tall or very full tree. As well as the overall height, you should consider the width. A large Christmas tree topper needs enough room so that bow tails or decorative details don’t disappear among the branches.
As a rough guide:
A Christmas tree topper should be decorative, but it also needs to stay securely in place. With a bow, check whether it can be attached to a sturdy top branch or secured using an existing fastening ribbon. A heavy topper can pull thin branches downwards.
Before you buy, check:
A shiny finish doesn’t automatically mean a product is suitable for use over several festive seasons. The material details and how the topper is made also matter. According to its product description, the Tree Top BOW 130x33CM CHAMPGAN 2 is made from 80% polyester and 20% cotton, with a durable printed glitter check pattern. Store the bow somewhere dry, protect it from pressure and keep it away from heavy objects.
For plastic products such as polyamide or nylon, shape retention and low weight are the main considerations. The product description for the Tree Top BOW 130x33CM CHAMPAGNE 1 lists polyamide as the material. However, the material details don’t replace the need to check the specific fastening and permitted use.
Always compare the dimensions with the height of the tree and the width of its crown. A 130 cm-long decorative tree topper creates a striking draped effect. It may extend beyond the sides of a narrow fir, while on a wider tree it could look more balanced.
For offices, shops and event venues, sightlines matter too. A striking red Christmas tree bow can be easy to see from a distance, while a small gold Christmas tree topper may be better suited to a living room where it can be viewed up close.
Polyamide is lightweight and, when made appropriately, can help a bow hold its shape. Polyester-cotton fabric has a more textured look and can suit a traditional, festive style. Check the following:
Choose a topper that works with your existing Christmas tree decorations. Cream and champagne tones can be paired with red, gold, green or silver. Red and gold suit a traditional look, while white or gold creates a more understated contrast against green branches.
If you have a Christmas tree with lights, make sure the topper isn’t in direct contact with hot bulbs. LED lights usually produce less heat than conventional bulbs during normal use, but you should still follow the safety instructions for the lighting product. Keep open flames and direct heat sources well away from artificial decorations.

We’ve put together a complete, regularly updated list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and fully comply with the safety regulations in force in the EU.
First, straighten the top branch and place the topper as close to the centre as possible. For a bow, use any existing ribbons, clips or flexible fastenings. A discreet extra fastening may be useful for larger designs. Make sure the tree is stable, especially if you have children or pets at home.
Its lifespan depends on the material, how it’s made, how it’s attached and how it’s stored. Store fabric bows somewhere dry, taking care not to crease them. Protect plastic or star toppers from pressure, moisture and direct heat. Glitter finishes can be affected by rubbing, so it’s best to store them separately in a suitable box.
The price depends on factors such as size, material, finish and design. A small Christmas tree topper requires less material than a 130 cm-long tree topper. As well as the price, compare the dimensions, weight, fastening and intended use. This will help you decide whether the decoration is right for your tree, an office or a larger sales space.
