The 4-tiered, electric Holy Story Pyramid from Müller, made of natural wood, adds a festive and stylish touch to any setting. It stands as an impressive, unique example of Erzgebirge craftsmanship and captivates with both its loving details and its expressive depiction of the Christmas story. The electric-operated model switches on gently and safely, while seven high-quality LED candles illuminate the entire pyramid evenly and atmospherically. A synchronous motor ensures that the four levels rotate quietly and smoothly, highlighting all the artfully crafted scenes.
Each level tells a significant part of the biblical Christmas story. At the bottom, Mary and Joseph accompany the child on a donkey, accompanied by a protective angel. Above, the Three Wise Men walk, followed by a camel driver and two hand-carved camels. Mary and Joseph bend over the newborn in prayer, while a shepherd and his angel watch. At the top, shepherds with their sheep stand, symbolically underscoring the miraculous message of the holiday.
The Müller Kleinkunst company selected exclusive woods such as beech, maple, padauk, zebrano, and mahogany for this pyramid. The clear, natural furniture-grade wood is minimally treated, allowing the subtle nuances and grains to enhance the overall appearance. The clean, turned fences and the characteristic ring body with rounded arches at the base of the wings characterize the pyramid’s elegant silhouette. At the same time, all components meet the highest standards of functionality and safety; the selected materials reliably withstand temperatures and stresses.
At approximately 122 centimeters high, this four-tier Christmas pyramid presents itself as a dazzling centerpiece in any room. Even years after its purchase, its magic remains undiminished, as the mechanical movement, the striking scenes, and the precision craftsmanship never cease to amaze viewers.

The tradition of Christmas pyramids:
The tradition of Christmas pyramids comes from the Ore Mountains in Germany. It developed in the 18th century. Originally, Christmas pyramids were made from wood. These artistic structures rotate due to the rising heat of candles. The focus is usually on biblical scenes or winter motifs. The pyramids symbolize the light and hope of the Christmas season. In the past, they served as the forerunner of the Christmas tree. In the Ore Mountains, Christmas pyramids are an integral part of the festive decorations. They are often passed down from generation to generation. Each pyramid is an expression of traditional craftsmanship.
