The Half Winter Tree in two sizes from Björn Köhler impresses with its simple yet charming design. Björn Köhler turns this special creation using traditional craftsmanship, giving each tree its own individual touch and underscoring the quality of the craftsmanship.
The trees are presented in a clear, matte white, perfectly capturing the winter aesthetic and creating a calm, festive atmosphere. The turning technique used gives them a characteristic, tiered silhouette that immediately recalls snow-covered firs. The special feature of these “Half Winter Trees” is their flat cut surface, which allows them to be placed directly against a wall or shelf. This offers flexible decoration options, whether as part of a winter landscape, as a complement to other figurines, or simply as a minimalist statement piece.
The Half Winter Tree is available in two different sizes, opening up a variety of design possibilities. For example, you can combine both sizes to create a dynamic forest scene or arrange them as a duo on a mantelpiece. Smaller trees are ideal for windowsills or shelves, while the larger versions serve as focal points on sideboards or as part of larger ensembles. Regardless of their size, these white, turned trees exude a simple elegance; they remain a timeless companion through the winter and Christmas seasons. They represent an expression of Erzgebirge craftsmanship, pared down to the essentials for maximum effect.
