Savvy shoppers have found 'amazing' dupes of a Baccarat Christmas ornament at Saks Fifth Avenue.

The high end retailer is selling its five-inch tall red Louxor Tree Figure for $490.

The crystal ornament was made in France and designed by Thomas Bastide to 'embody the magic of Christmas and to 'capture and reflect light in fascinating ways.'

However, those on more modest budgets have raved about a $33 version of the festive decoration from Wayfair. 

The retailer's Mercury Glass Christmas Tree, currently on sale for $32.99, comes in a red that looks comparable to Saks', but is also available in gold, green and white.

At 10.6 inches tall for a smaller option and 14 inches for the larger, Wayfair's offering is a little larger than Saks'.

Consumers have also taken to Target's red Christmas Glass Twist Tree Tealight Candle Holder that offers a similar contribution to the at-home festive theme.   

At $21.99 and at $6.25 inches in height the red glass trinket offers a comparable size and unbeatable price to Saks'.

'This Christmas tree tea light holder is a fun and festive way to add light and ambiance to your home during the holiday season,' Target said of the decoration. 

Other similar dupes include the 12-inch Red Glass Tree Tabletop Decor from Big Lots, however it is only available in-store. 

ACE Hardware also have a 9-inch red glass Christmas tree that lights up with in-built LEDs for $29.99.

The lights come with a timer so there is no need to worry about turning it off when heading to bed, and the timer will bring the lights back on at the same time each day for six hours. 

This can create a warm and cozy ambience on any dinner table or mantelpiece with minimal fuss. 

Value Christmas decorations have seen a surge in popularity this year on sites such as TikTok, as consumers are cutting back on holiday treats following years of inflation and elevated interest rates. 

As such, shoppers have rushed to Dollar Tree this winter to pick up a 'vintage style' Christmas decoration before it sells out. 

Consumers have raved about the $5 LED Lighted Ceramic Tree from the Dollar Tree Plus section. 

Saks Fifth Avenue offers an array of ultra-high end Christmas decorations

 Aldi has also seen a rush from shoppers getting into the festive spirit, and even had to restock one of its most popular Christmas items after it sold out after just two weeks. 

Each year, the supermarket giant asks shoppers to vote for the items they most want to see return to its Aldi Finds section, known by fans as the 'aisle of shame'.

The aisle that runs down the middle of stores has gained its colloquial name and reputation because shoppers tend to spot great deals and lose all self-control by indulging in some impulse purchases.

For 2024, the most votes in the Fan Favorites survey went to the festive Huntington Home Swedish Dish Cloth.

There are four versions, including one with a colorfully decorated Christmas tree topped with a red star on a cream background.  

It comes in four special holiday prints, including Santa's Sleigh, All is Calm All is Bright, Let It Snow, and Christmas Tree.'
