Description
This pre-lit artificial Christmas tree comes with its lights already set among the branches, so it is ready to glow as soon as it is up. Ice Queen Pine is the name for its look: full, layered green branches in a classic cone shape, with pale, feathery white sprigs scattered through them from the tip down to the lowest tier. Those white sprigs catch the light and give the green a wintry lift without a dusting of snow. At its widest, the tree measures 1.18m across, which settles the first question for most homes: it needs a clear circle a little wider than that to sit comfortably, with room to walk past.
We would put it in a living room, a dining room or a wide hallway, anywhere it can be enjoyed from across the room on a winter evening. Because it is broad at the base and tapers to a slim point, it suits a corner or a spot against a plain wall, where the lit branches and white sprigs show clearly. It makes a fine family tree for the whole household to decorate together, and with the lights already in place, it takes the untangling out of trimming the tree.
The tree stands on a cross-shaped stand that opens out beneath the trunk, keeping it upright on a flat floor. Fluff each branch out as you set it up so the tiers fill evenly and the lights sit among the needles rather than flattened against them. Out of season, dust it with a soft dry cloth before it goes back into storage, and keep it somewhere dry. As a finishing touch, it carries ornaments in any colour scheme well, though a few white or silver baubles pick up the pale sprigs nicely, and a tree skirt around the stand neatens the base.
