It is paper mache, and has felt around the top. The tree is a miniature goose feather tree which stands nearly 5" tall. The feathers are dyed green, and thin brown paper is wrapped around the trunk. At the end of each branch is a red berry. The stand is wooden and is marked Germany on the bottom. The miniature book is "A Christmas Carol" penned by Charles Dickens.
