Erzgebirge folk art Richard Glässer Ltd
Lord Richard Glässer always paid attention to it. that the individual products were of the best quality, that the figures were given a friendly appearance and remained affordable for the buyer in terms of price. Of course, as is typical for Seiffen, everything was based on turned shapes. For Christmas pyramids and candlesticks, figures from the Christian Christmas story, from fairy tales and children's books, but also miners were created according to our mining tradition.
The company Glässer developed into the most important pyramid manufacturer. The blue pyramids with sky arches, the Advent houses or the hexagonal and octagonal step pyramids are known worldwide. The company Glässer supplemented the Seiffen Christmas decoration product range with the music box range. The natural wood music box with the birth of the Christ Child under the crib roof and the two palm trees is one of the oldest and most beautiful. Their running disc rotates with the figures to the melody 'Silent Night, Holy Night ...', made to sound by the large Swiss musical mechanism.
