German traditional Gifts - handmade wooden art from the Erzgebirge in Germany

The first smoker was developed around 1850 in Heidelberg close to Seiffen. At first dough served as material. Mostly figures of the everyday life were used as motif. Nowadays also Santa Claus and other modern motives are manufactured. Available are salesmen, bakers, foresters, miners, chimney sweepers, standing smokers, edge stools smokers, large smokers, small smokers and so on. Woodturning is the main technique that is used to produce a smoker.

An incense cone is put into the lower part of the split body. The smoke comes out of the mouth and provides a drifting aroma throughout the room.
