This seamless 3D texture in stunning 8K resolution showcases highly detailed ornament glass surfaces, perfectly crafted to replicate shiny baubles commonly used in holiday decorations. The base substrate mimics smooth glass with subtle ceramic influences, providing a glossy, polished finish that highlights the reflective and translucent qualities typical of premium Christmas ornaments. Fine sparkling glitter and delicate highlights are integrated into the material composition, simulating the minute particles suspended within or adhered to the surface, which enhance the festive sparkle and twinkling light effects seen in real-world baubles. The texture’s photorealistic detail is achieved through careful layering of pigments and oxide-based colorants that produce rich, vibrant hues with natural color variation and depth.
The PBR material channels are expertly configured to capture the complex interactions of light and surface features. The BaseColor/Albedo map defines the vivid ornament glass shades and underlying ceramic tones, while the Normal map adds subtle surface imperfections and intricate grain orientation that simulate fine scratches and microfacet reflections. Roughness values are finely tuned to balance glossy shine and soft diffusion, replicating the smooth yet slightly textured feel of glass surfaces coated with sparkling glitter. The Metallic channel remains low, preserving the non-metallic nature of glass, while Ambient Occlusion enhances depth perception around edges and crevices, contributing to overall realism. Height and displacement maps are used sparingly to accentuate raised glitter particles and surface irregularities, adding tactile richness without compromising seamless tiling.
Designed for seamless tiling and maximum flexibility, this ornament glass texture is fully optimized for use in Blender, Unreal Engine, and Unity, making it ideal for digital asset creation, seasonal product visualization, and high-quality decoration renders. Its 8K resolution ensures exceptional clarity even on large-scale models, preserving fine details and reflective nuances. For best results, users should consider adjusting the UV scale to maintain the correct size of glass baubles on models, and fine-tune roughness parameters to match specific lighting environments. This texture offers a versatile solution for developers and artists seeking realistic, shiny baubles with authentic holiday charm and photorealistic finish in their projects.
How to Use These Seamless PBR Textures in Blender
This guide shows how to connect a full PBR texture set to Principled BSDF in Blender (Cycles or Eevee). Works with any of our seamless textures free download, including PBR PNG materials for Blender / Unreal / Unity.
What’s inside the download
*_albedo.png — Base Color (sRGB)*_normal.png — Normal map (Non-Color)*_roughness.png — Roughness (Non-Color)*_metallic.png — Metallic (Non-Color)*_ao.png — Ambient Occlusion (Non-Color)*_height.png — Height / Displacement (Non-Color)*_ORM.png — Packed map (R=AO, G=Roughness, B=Metallic, Non-Color)
Quick start (Node Wrangler, 30 seconds)
- Enable the addon: Edit → Preferences → Add-ons → Node Wrangler.
- Create a material and select the Principled BSDF node.
- Press Ctrl + Shift + T and select the maps
albedo, normal, roughness, metallic (skip height and ORM for now) → Open.
The addon wires Base Color, Normal (with a Normal Map node), Roughness, and Metallic automatically.
- Add AO and Height using the “Manual wiring” steps below (5 and 6).
Manual wiring (full control)
- Create a material (Material Properties → New) and open the Shader Editor.
- Add an Image Texture node for each map. Set Color Space:
- Albedo → sRGB
- AO, Roughness, Metallic, Normal, Height, ORM → Non-Color
- Connect to Principled BSDF:
albedo → Base Colorroughness → Roughnessmetallic → Metallic (for wood this often stays near 0)normal → Normal Map node (Type: Tangent Space) → Normal of Principled.
If details look “inverted”, enable Invert Y on the Normal Map node.
- Ambient Occlusion (AO):
- Add a MixRGB (or Mix Color) node in mode Multiply.
- Input A =
albedo, Input B = ao, Factor = 1.0.
- Output of Mix → Base Color of Principled (replaces the direct albedo connection).
- Height / Displacement:
Cycles — true displacement
- Material Properties → Settings → Displacement: Displacement and Bump.
- Add a Displacement node: connect
height → Height, set Midlevel = 0.5, Scale = 0.02–0.08 (tune to taste).
- Output of Displacement → Material Output → Displacement.
- Add geometry density (e.g., Subdivision Surface) so displacement has polygons to work with.
Eevee (or lightweight Cycles) — bump only
- Add a Bump node:
height → Height.
- Set Strength = 0.2–0.5, Distance = 0.05–0.1, and connect Normal output to Principled’s Normal.
Using the packed ORM texture (optional)
Instead of separate AO/Roughness/Metallic maps you can use the single *_ORM.png:
- Add one Image Texture (Non-Color) → Separate RGB (or Separate Color).
- R (red) → AO (use it in the Multiply node with albedo as above).
- G (green) → Roughness of Principled.
- B (blue) → Metallic of Principled.
UVs & seamless tiling
- These textures are seamless. If your mesh has no UVs, go to UV Editing → Smart UV Project.
- For scale/repeat, add Texture Coordinate (UV) → Mapping and plug it into all texture nodes.
Increase Mapping → Scale (e.g., 2/2/2) to tile more densely.
Recommended starter values
- Normal Map Strength: 0.5–1.0
- Bump Strength: ~0.3
- Displacement Scale (Cycles): ~0.03
Common pitfalls
- Wrong Color Space (normals/roughness/etc. must be Non-Color).
- “Inverted” details → enable Invert Y on the Normal Map node.
- Over-strong relief → lower Displacement Scale or Bump Strength.
