The term altar decoration summarizes all ornaments that are firmly anchored in the Christian religion and adorn the altar of a Christian building. In today's parlance, the word altar jewelry is further used and used for flowers, candles and other elements that are generally used in the nave for decorative purposes and therefore need not alone find their place on an altar. For centuries, floristry has been closely associated with the tradition of the church and has repeatedly contributed to flowers and other plants being used as decoration in sacred buildings. The main goal here is to give the church or chapel a natural and positive note, since otherwise, as in a secular building no decoration or other design of the altar or nave is common. Bringing flowers as altar jewelry is common practice at various Christian festivals, such as Thanksgiving or Easter, and is more cultivated in Catholic regions than in Protestantism. Also for funeral services or weddings altar jewelry is set up, which adapts in its color scheme and the selection of flowers and plants to the respective event. In earlier centuries, altar decorations were still brought free of charge by gardeners or flower-bearers of the region as homage to God, but modern church congregations usually maintain a close relationship with a familiar floristry, which supplies the right altar decoration depending on the event and the season.
