Tealight Christmas pyramid, Seiffen church motif, 24 cm, by Thomas Preißler from Seiffen in the Erzgebirge
A Christmas in the Erzgebirge is unthinkable without Christmas pyramids, nutcrackers, smokers and other traditional figures. The traditions of the Ore Mountains have been cultivated and passed on for generations. Especially in the many small family businesses in and around Seiffen, wooden products from the Ore Mountains have been produced for decades. The Thomas Preißler company is now in its 4th generation of producing typical Ore Mountain folk art, including this natural-colored Christmas pyramid. The artisans try to preserve the traditional and at the same time reflect the lifestyle of their time. With the Seiffen church Christmas pyramid, Thomas Preißler succeeds in staging both sides.
Seiffen church popular motif for Christmas pyramids
On the one hand, the, famous Seiffen church standing in the middle on a turntable is a popular motif in the Ore Mountains, on the other hand, the shape of the two curved outer arches differs from the often strictly upward-facing ledges. The tea lights, which have been in vogue for some years now, are placed in each of the four corners, on an existing base consisting of a hexagonal disk and a wooden cross. The rising heat from the tea light candles is used to drive an impeller at the top of the Christmas pyramid, so that the turntable can be set in motion. Traditionally, four of the famous Kurrende carol singers with a songbook can be found on the turntable around the Seiffen church. Another singer carries a star and a lantern. The carol singers perform their songs during the Christmas service and delight the people during Advent, when they parade through the village and sing Christmas carols in the houses.
A contemplative atmosphere for young and old
It is precisely this contemplative atmosphere that awaits you in your home, when you light the lights and let the candlelight bring peace and quiet to your home. The play of light and shadow enchants young and old. Reward yourself with a little piece of Erzgebirge Christmas. You can purchase the tea lights you need in premium quality in our online store.
