Characterful Design – the Incense Smoker Surveyor, 21 cm by Karl Werner Measures Up in Every Detail
The cheerful Incense Smoker Surveyor, 21 cm by Karl Werner proudly wears a bright orange coat, crafted to highlight the rich natural grain of Erzgebirge wood. His dark surveying helmet and signature red nose are complemented by a finely painted grey mustache and full beard. In his right hand, he holds a wooden pipe from which fragrant smoke will gently emerge. In his left, he grips a surveying rod complete with measuring scale and an orange tripod. Tucked into his pocket are rolled-up blueprints and paperwork, while a black identification badge hangs around his neck. A miniature concrete survey marker rests at his feet—each detail carved and painted with unmistakable precision.
Traditional Craftsmanship – Handmade in Sayda, Germany
Handcrafted in the renowned Karl Werner workshop in Sayda, each Incense Smoker Surveyor, 21 cm by Karl Werner is made using regional hardwoods such as maple and beech. Carefully turned, sanded, and finished with non-toxic, water-based paints, these incense smokers reflect the high standards of Erzgebirge folk art. Each figure is a durable and collectible one-of-a-kind creation.
Scent and Function – Fragrant Warmth for the Holiday Season
Inside the smoker is space for a standard 25 mm incense cone. Once lit, the smoke rises through the open mouth, making it seem as though the surveyor is enjoying a calming puff after a long day of measuring and marking. This clever blend of function and form creates a soothing and festive atmosphere, especially during the Advent and Christmas seasons.
