An imitation tree is made by forming a trunk, roots, branches and leaves by using chiefly stranded wires as a material imitating a natural tree. The stranded wire which is a material may be a composite stranded wire obtained by stranding metal filaments and an optical fiber together, or may be obtained by stranding the same or different kinds of metal filaments selected from iron or an iron alloy, copper or a copper alloy, aluminum or an aluminum alloy and noble metals. The stranded wires are suitably subjected to the annealing or surface treatment such as coloring, plating, lustering, delustering or application of a fluorescent coating material. The stranded wires are bundled together to form a trunk, roots and branches, and the ends thereof are unstranded to form twigs, leaves, buds and blossoms. The metal filaments are unstranded from the stranded wires and, as required, ornaments such as artificial fruits and blossoms are attached by attaching beads which are ornamental materials supposed to be fruits and blossoms to the metal filaments.
