Is this real glass or plastic?

Real glass with a mercury-style mirrored coating. It is not shatterproof, so handle and store it carefully.

Can I hang these outdoors?

Only in covered outdoor areas. Balsam Hill rates them for indoor or covered outdoor use, so keep them out of rain and direct weather.

Which size should I pick?

The 24-pack of 2-inch ornaments suits small trees, wreaths and bowl fillers. The 12-piece 3 to 3.5-inch and 4-inch sets fill a full-size tree faster.

Can I mix them with other ornaments?

Yes. Balsam Hill designs them to mix with other BH Essentials collections, and the neutral mirrored finish pairs with most color schemes.

How should I store them?

Wrap each piece or use a divided ornament storage box. Loose packing is the most common cause of breakage between seasons.

Are they heavy enough to bend branches?

The large 4-inch pieces weigh about 0.73 lbs each, so use sturdy branches or wire the hanger. The small set is light at about 0.10 lbs per piece.

Our take on the BH Essentials Mercury Glass Ornament Set

A set of real mercury glass ornaments from Balsam Hill in three sizes: 24 small 2-inch pieces, 12 medium 3 to 3.5-inch pieces, or 12 large 4-inch pieces. Each set mixes shapes with a glossy mirrored finish that reflects lights and colors on the tree. They are glass, so they are heavier and more fragile than plastic or shatterproof ornaments, and Balsam Hill rates them for indoor or covered outdoor use only. Buyers rate them highly for shine and looks; the trade-off against cheaper shatterproof sets is breakage risk and careful storage.
