Beacon Design is proud to be the leading ornament manufacturer in the United States. Their unique metal-etched ornaments are designed, tooled, assembled, and packaged within their Lincoln, R.I., headquarters. As a veteran founded company and leader in the industry, Beacon Design holds its product to the highest quality standards. With hundreds of ornament designs to choose from, their retail line offers something for everyone. Categories consist of Namedrops, Coastal, Nature, Snowflakes, Seasonal, Americana, and Military.

Each ornament is made from solid brass and goes through a water-based photo etching process. Once the pieces are etched, they undergo extensive cleaning and are finished in 24kt Gold, Rhodium Silver, or Brass Lacquer. They are then digitally printed with vibrant color, delicately assembled by hand, and elegantly packaged in a retail showcase window box. All ornaments are 100% Made in the U.S.A. offering short lead times, competitive pricing, quantity breaks, and low minimums. They also provide full custom ornaments restaurants.
