Balsam Hill makes artificial Christmas Trees and Christmas decorations for consumer and commercial use. The privately held company is located in Northern California and serves customers worldwide. Balsam Hill specializes in artificial Christmas trees modeled after naturally occurring varieties of commonly used Christmas Trees.[1][2]
[edit] History
Balsam Hill was founded by Thomas Harman. He was inspired to start the company by his allergic brother in-law when he could not find an artificial tree that looked real enough.[3] So Harman set out to develop a line of artificial trees that were highly realistic and luxurious.[4] To accomplish this mission, Harman and a team of designers crafted their trees to mimic nature using on-site visits and cuttings from live trees as guides.
Based in Redwood City, California, in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains, Balsam Hill designs all of its own trees which are available on their website and at their flagship retail showroom in Palo Alto, CA. Each Christmas season, Balsam Hill operates two seasonal showrooms featuring their Signature Collection items. The seasonal showrooms are located at Stanford Shopping Center in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Lenox Square Mall in the Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta, GA.[4]
