Tinsel | Christmas
Tinsel is a thin metallic strip typically made of plastic for use for Christmas decoration, particularly on Christmas trees. Tinsel is different than Garland, which is “Tinsel on a rope”. It was invented in Germany in 1610, and was originally made of shredded silver.<ref></ref>
Tinsel used to include lead, which caused the strands to hang better from the branches. This was eventually removed due to safety concerns.
