Gift at a Glance
This Boss Personalized Christmas Ornament is a round disc of natural slate, dark charcoal with a lightly textured face, laser engraved with the line "My Favorite Employee Gave Me This Ornament" in mixed block and typewriter lettering. You sign it yourself: your name is engraved on the line near the bottom, with the year engraved underneath, so your boss knows exactly which favorite employee to credit.
Why You'll Love It
Buying a gift for your own boss is a tightrope. This personalized Christmas ornament handles it by making the joke first: the boss reads the line, works out that they are now on record as having a favorite, and the whole thing reads as funny instead of fawning. It is the office in-joke you can hang on a branch.
Natural slate gives the piece its weight and its color. Every disc splits a little differently, so the texture across the face and the line of the edge are never quite the same twice. The lettering is custom engraved into the stone by laser, which means it will not rub off or fade the way printed ink does.
Signing your own name is the part that makes it stick. Years from now the boss pulls the ornament out of the box, reads the name and the year, and remembers the team they had that December. One employee can give it, or the group can put one name on it and let everyone else argue about it.
Helpful Details
The engraved line across the middle of the slate is fixed on every ornament, and the personalized sign-off sits below it: your name on one line and the year on the line under it. Engraving on slate comes out in a soft pale gray against the dark stone, which stays legible from across a room. A jute cord runs through a hole at the top, and the flat back keeps the ornament from twisting on the branch.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Favorite Employee boss ornament say?
The engraving reads "My Favorite Employee Gave Me This Ornament." That line is fixed design text and appears on every ornament, written from the boss's point of view.
Whose name goes on it, mine or my boss's?
Yours. The Boss Personalized Christmas Ornament is signed by the person giving it, so you enter your own name for the sign-off line near the bottom, plus the year.
Will the engraving fade over time?
No. This ornament is laser engraved into natural slate, so the lettering is cut into the stone and will not rub off or fade.
What is it made of and how big is it?
It is made of natural slate and measures 3 inches tall by 3 inches wide. Because slate is a natural stone, the texture and the edge vary a little from one ornament to the next.
Is this a good Secret Santa gift for a boss?
Yes. It is a custom engraved joke gift with a name and a year on it, which reads better in an office exchange than a generic gift card.
