2014胡须年 男士胡须挂装饰物

 

There a Tumblr pages galore dedicated² to men with a strong whisker presence and a Mancunian has even launched a dating site specifically for pogonophiles.

 

So, with Christmas around the corner, it was only right that a company invented a seasonal³ accessory for bearded men.

 

A London advertising⁴ agency has been selling beard baubles⁵ - for the man wanting to add an extra festive⁶ touch to his chin fuzz.

 

The company claims that the Yuletide facial hair accessory - which retails⁷ for $7.80 a packet - has been flying off shelves, with customers from as far as Australia placing orders.

 

Ollie Dearn, who works at the agency behind the accessory, Grey London, said: 'The product has been particularly popular with Brits.

 

'We've sold more than we ever expected. But Aussie, American, Kiwis, German and French customers have been purchasing Beard Baubles too.'

 

Each pack contains 14 multicoloured baubles to attach to the bristles⁸ - ten large balls and four small ones.

 

The success of the product is a happy accident - the business makes a Christmas card every year to send to clients and friends and this year decided⁹ to add a present to their message of seasonal cheer.

 

Ollie said: 'Each year, Grey London make a Christmas card to send out to clients and other agencies.'

 

He continued: 'This year, the two designers Mike Kennedy and Pauline Ashford went one step further and came up with a festive gift idea to feature on our cards - Beard Baubles. It was a striking image.'
