This incense smoker book lover, natural, is lovingly and traditionally handcrafted by the Friedbert Uhlig turnery. Natural incense figures and miniatures with unusual motifs are the trademark of the Uhlig company based in Leubsdorf.
In order to keep the grain of the wood visible, the incense smokers are only glazed and stained, each figure is unique in its own way, you always get a one-off.
With brown, sturdy boots, the book lover stands firmly on his small pedestal, he is dressed in brown shorts and a natural-colored jacket with dark buttons and a scarf, on his head he wears a brown hat.
Where else should you find the book lover than behind a stack of books, holding his latest acquisition in one hand and his round reading glasses in the other. On the floor in front of him is a stack of books which he has already read.
As it should be for a real incense smoker, the book lover also has a finished pipe hanging in his mouth. The little guy with the friendly face, the red nose and the light mustache adapts to any interior and is always an absolute eye-catcher.
Note: Wood is a natural product where no two pieces are the same, so the grain of the incense smoker can vary from item to item, this does not constitute a reason for complaint.
