PHILIPPI : Nordkap

Christmas Bauble Set 12 pieces

Christmas can shine a little more quietly this year

Twelve baubles, five muted colours and refreshingly little festive fuss: the PHILIPPI NORDKAP set of 12 Christmas baubles brings a calm, contemporary palette to the Christmas tree. Made from glass with a velvety matt finish, the baubles come in dark green, white, black, copper and bronze – a combination that feels festive without turning the tree into a glitter convention. Each PHILIPPI Christmas bauble measures approximately 6 cm in diameter and 7 cm in height, with a brass-coloured hanger adding a small, warm detail. The complete set weighs around 310 g. Against fresh green branches, the colours develop their own character: white creates light accents, dark green almost melts into the needles, black adds graphic depth, while copper and bronze pick up the warmth of candlelight and fairy lights. The result is modern Christmas tree decoration with a Scandinavian-inspired feel, yet enough warmth for long December evenings at home. All twelve glass baubles arrive protected in a natural brown cardboard box, making them easy to store between seasons and a lovely choice for gifting too.

Things get interesting between fir branches and candlelight

NORDKAP is made for Christmas decorating that feels considered rather than coordinated down to the last centimetre. Thanks to their matt surface and balanced colour palette, these glass Christmas baubles are easy to combine with decorations you already own. On a traditional green tree they create calm contrasts, while wood, linen, pine cones and natural branches bring out their Nordic character. And there is no rule saying Christmas baubles have to stay on the tree. Arrange a few in a decorative bowl, place them on a tray with greenery or use them across a festive table to echo the colours of your tree throughout the room. For a pared-back look, give each bauble a little breathing space. Prefer a fuller Christmas display? Add favourite ornaments and warm lights around them. The understated NORDKAP colours provide a visual thread without taking over the entire scene.

Nordic in spirit, unmistakably considered

PHILIPPI creates home accessories and gifts with a design language shaped by materials, proportions and ideas rather than short-lived effects. The owner-managed design company is based in Henstedt-Ulzburg near Hamburg and has grown into an internationally represented design brand. That approach is easy to recognise in the NORDKAP collection: familiar Christmas decoration is stripped back and reinterpreted without losing the warmth associated with the season. Crafted from glass, this set combines the traditional round Christmas bauble with a contemporary matt colour palette. It is also a natural fit with the LIVOSY philosophy of choosing objects that do not feel dated after one season, but can be brought out and styled differently year after year. The baubles are made in China, while the design and brand concept come from PHILIPPI. PHILIPPI credits the NORDKAP design to Jagdish+Neelakshi.

Twelve baubles, and the tree knows where it is going

NORDKAP becomes particularly inviting when its colours reappear elsewhere in the room. Brass-coloured details, candlelight, dark wood and evergreen branches pick up the warmth of bronze and copper, while black and white introduce crisp contrast. Within PHILIPPI's Christmas collection, the baubles can be paired with the NORDKAP tree or combined with understated hanging ornaments, advent wreaths, reindeer and other seasonal pieces. The beauty of the set is that the twelve baubles already create a coherent foundation while leaving plenty of room for personal favourites, collected ornaments and decorations with a story behind them. Christmas does not need to be meticulously styled, nor does it have to become a riot of colour. NORDKAP finds a rather pleasant place in between – ready to return to its box after the festivities and make another appearance next year.
