Silver is the cool counterpart to gold, and it belongs with blue, white and icy palettes. Under cool white or pure white lighting it reads genuinely frosted. It is also the safest metallic for contemporary commercial spaces, where gold can feel more traditional than the brand wants. Matte ornaments do the opposite job to gloss: they absorb light instead of bouncing it, which gives a wreath depth and stops it looking like a cluster of highlights. They also photograph far better than gloss, with no hot spots from a flash or a shop window. Most designers mix the two, using matte as the body of an arrangement and gloss as the accent. Sizes are given in millimetres, as the trade uses: 60mm is roughly 2.4 inches, 80mm about 3.1 inches, and 150mm just under 6 inches. Most designers work with at least two sizes on the same wreath — a run of smaller balls to fill, and a few large ones as focal points — because a wreath decorated in a single size tends to read as flat.
