In the early days of production, glassblowers used a harmful alloy of tin and lead to mirror the glass surfaces. From 1870 onwards, the balls got their shine from silver nitrate, which is still used in mirror production today. The publishing houses from Sonneberg took over the distribution. The mass production of this new tree decoration was made possible by the construction of a gas works in Lauscha in 1867, because only a very hot gas flame made it possible to blow large and thin-walled balls. Previously, the Bunsen burners had been operated with rapeseed oil and paraffin. Family members then dipped the mirrored balls in paint and sometimes added mica particles. In 1870, Justus von Liebig managed to coat glass bodies with a silver solution and make them shine. Around 1880, the American Frank Winfield Woolworth imported the first Christmas tree baubles into the United States.
