Erzgebirge folk art Richard Glässer GmbH
Mister Richard Glässer always paid attention. that the individual products were made of the best quality, that the figures had a friendly appearance and that the price remained affordable for the buyer. Of course, as is typical for Seiffen, everything was based on turned shapes. For Christmas pyramids and candle holders, characters 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 product range of Seiffen Christmas decorations with the music box assortment. 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.
