Tradition meets craftsmanship: The Eckert angel and miner wax candles

In the heart of the Ore Mountains, in the picturesque village of Deutschneudorf, the Eckert Volkskunstwerkstatt has been making Christmas decorations for generations, which are known far beyond the borders of Germany. Their exquisite creations include the angel and miner figurines, which are not only a symbol of Christmas anticipation, but also reflect the rich cultural heritage of this region.

Handcrafted masterpieces from the Erzgebirge

The Eckert - angel and miner series stands for quality and tradition. Each set consists of an angel and a miner, carefully carved from local woods such as maple, beech, alder, ash, spruce, lime and pine. These types of wood are valued for their longevity and natural appearance. With a height of 22 cm and a simple, natural color scheme, these figurines blend harmoniously into any interior. The classic and traditional design makes them a timeless Christmas decoration, that can be passed down from generation to generation.

Unique lighting for contemplative hours

Each figure can be fitted with two candles, which spread a warm, inviting light and thus create an incomparable atmosphere during the Advent season. This lighting concept not only brings the figures to life, but also emphasizes the artistic craftsmanship, that goes into every detail.
