Miner and angel for wax candles, natural by Volkskunstwerkstatt Eckert from Deutschneudorf in the Erzgebirge
Traditional Erzgebirge craftsmanship
The Advent season and Christmas are hardly imaginable without traditional decorations. Particularly popular are handmade figurines, which not only decorate the home, but also warm the heart. An outstanding example of such artistic craftsmanship are the Miner and the Angel with the spotted dress from the Eckert Volkskunstwerkstatt in Deutschneudorf in the Ore Mountains. These figures combine traditional values with high-quality craftsmanship and are a real highlight for any Christmas decoration.
A symbol of Erzgebirge tradition
The figures of the miner and the angel are deeply rooted in the Erzgebirge tradition. Originally, they symbolized the contrast between light and darkness, good and evil, heaven and earth. The miner, dressed in his work uniform, and the angel, wrapped in a spotted dress, represent the close connection between the hard-working people of the Erzgebirge and their belief in the divine. These figures from the series "Eckert - angel and miner" by the Eckert Volkskunstwerkstatt are handcrafted from local woods such as maple, beech, alder, ash, spruce, lime and pine and bear witness to the high quality and traditional craftsmanship of the region.
Handcrafted art from the Erzgebirge
Each figurine from the Eckert Volkskunstwerkstatt is unique and is carefully handcrafted. The use of natural materials and the loving design of every detail make the angel and the miner something very special. With a height of 22 cm and illuminated by wax candles, these figurines create a warm and inviting atmosphere in any room. The design is traditional and classic, which gives the figurines a timeless charm. The combination of craftsmanship and tradition creates works of art, that can be passed down from generation to generation.
Unique decoration for the Advent- and Christmas season
The Miner and the Angel with the spotted dress are not only suitable as decoration for the Advent- and Christmas season, but they also tell a story of craftsmanship, tradition and faith. They are proof of the passion and skill of the artisans from the Ore Mountains. The figures are "Made in Germany" and come directly from Deutschneudorf, a town, known for its folk art. The combination of traditional design, craftsmanship and the use of natural materials makes these figures a real highlight in any Christmas decoration.
During the Advent season, when the days get shorter and the nights get longer, the Lichterbergmann and the angel from the Eckert Volkskunstwerkstatt bring light and warmth into homes. They are not just a decoration, but also a piece of Erzgebirge culture and tradition, that enriches the Christmas season and tells the story of a region, where craftsmanship is still highly valued.
