This Christmas tree ornament is a small hiking backpack made of wool. It is green and built up with details that mimic a packed rucksack: a light green front pocket, brown straps and belts with little buckles, a yellow sleeping bag roll on top and a red detail on the side. Two patches, one with a plane motif and one with the lettering NYC, tell a travel story before you even pick the ornament up.

At 8 cm high, 12 cm wide and 4 cm deep it has enough presence to be noticed on the tree, and at 10 g it is light enough for a thin branch. A hanging cord is attached at the top, so you can hook it straight on. It is made in China. As a hiking Christmas ornament it suits people who spend their holidays on the trail rather than on the beach.

The ornament is more than a backpack silhouette: it is made up of several parts. The front pocket sits in a lighter green against the body, while the straps and belts are brown with small buckles. On top lies a yellow roll like a strapped-down sleeping bag, and a red detail sits on the side. The two patches on the front bring in the plane and the lettering.

On the Christmas tree the backpack shows best hanging further out on a branch, where the belts, the patches and the roll can be seen from every side. The green, brown and yellow stand out next to shiny baubles and fairy lights.

It also works as a gift tag: laid over the ribbon it replaces the card and stays on as a decoration once the parcel is open. On a small parcel the 12 cm wide ornament almost takes over the picture.

Hikers, keen travellers, scouts and nature lovers recognise the motif at once: packed backpack, sleeping bag on top, straps pulled tight. The plane and NYC patches move the idea from the local trail to the long trip, which suits people who travel with a rucksack instead of a suitcase.

As a small something during Advent, as a Secret Santa present in the team or as a little extra under the tree, it needs no explaining.

Hang the backpack so the yellow roll stays on top - that is what gives it its outline. A place on an outer branch at eye level shows the two patches most clearly.

If you are giving it away, tie a small card with the name to the same cord so the ornament itself stays unmarked. Paired with a walking map or a pair of hiking socks it turns into a small gift set, and the motif says what the parcel is about before it is opened.
