The 8-piece Seiffen Church figure set with cottage and carolers from the Schalling woodturning shop combines traditional craftsmanship with loving design. It is meticulously handcrafted in the Ore Mountains and impresses with its fine details, warm aura, and versatility. All elements of the set are made of high-quality wood, skillfully turned and stained.
At the center of the ensemble is the Seiffen Church, whose striking shape immediately makes it an iconic motif of the Ore Mountains’ Christmas tradition. The windows are finely carved, and the doors are clearly accentuated, giving the church a simple yet elegant appearance. To the right and left of the church are two natural-looking cottages, whose gabled roofs and small, black windows complete a harmonious village scene.
Two artfully crafted chipboard trees made of light, spruce wood flank the scene, bringing a sense of lightness to the overall picture with their delicate structure. In front of it, a three-member choir of carolers in black robes is grouped. The small figures wear traditional black robes, their faces are friendly and simply painted. One of the singers holds a golden star in his hand, while the other two hold hymn books. This small group brings life and Christmas carols to the scene.
With its understated color scheme in natural, black, and brown tones, the set blends effortlessly into a variety of decorative styles. It can be placed on a sideboard, a shelf, or in an Advent arrangement. It is equally suitable as an accompanying motif for a Christmas pyramid or as a candle arch decoration. With this ensemble, you bring a piece of Erzgebirge tradition into your home – timelessly beautiful, crafted with love, and lovingly crafted down to the last detail.
