Incense smoking woman with apron and terrine
This friendly smoker has just come out of the kitchen. In her hands she is carrying a white terrine with a flower motif and steaming (!) content, probably made by herself, because she shines all over her face. The proper cook wears an apron decorated with flowers, which contrasts discreetly with her red skirt and goes well with the white blouse. The figure is lovingly handcrafted and is not only an appealing decoration at Christmas time.

Wooden incense smokers, which are equipped with fragrant incense cones, have been part of the Christmas tradition in the German Erzgebirge for many decades. The figures are not only useful wind protection for the burning incense cones, but also real testimonies of Erzgebirge craftsmanship, which reflect the experience and knowledge of many generations of wooden toy makers. Many figures represent observations from the everyday life in the Erzgebirge region and, thanks to the wit and creativity of their builders, invite you to discover details and tell stories. Often the figures show certain occupational groups or are intended to illustrate conspicuous character traits and habits. In any case, they are a welcome gift idea for any occasion.
