Bring the nostalgic charm of a traditional German Christmas market into your home with this delightful wooden Figure, beautifully made in Germany.
Small but dutiful: Even at just 14 centimeters, this night watchman makes his rounds every night. He wears a green coat with a red cap, holds a yellow lantern in one hand and a halberd in the other, and his horn gleams on his chest. As soon as an incense cone is lit inside him, smoke rises from his mouth as if he were about to call out the next hour. He fits in any window and on any narrow windowsill. A little guardian for cozy Advent evenings.
But this lovely Santa has another special feature! He is also a traditional German incense smoker, known as aRäuchermann. Place a suitable incense cone inside the figure, and fragrant smoke gently rises through his mouth, creating the wonderful atmosphere of a European Christmas market. Choose a festive fragrance such as gingerbread, cinnamon or Christmas spice for an especially cosy touch.
Made in Germany by Schulte Kunst, this beautiful wooden figure celebrates the traditional craftsmanship and attention to detail that make German Christmas decorations so treasured. From his tiny gingerbread cookies to the knitted texture of his hat and scarf, every detail adds to his wonderful old-world charm.
Whether displayed amongst your Christmas village, nestled into a festive mantel arrangement or given a special place in your holiday decorating, Gingerbread Santa is a delightful keepsake to bring out and enjoy year after year.
A little piece of German Christmas tradition to treasure for generations.
