Way back in 1912, even before she founded the company, Grete Wendt sketched a candle-bearing angel. This creation went on to become known as “Angel 28” based on its later catalog number. The aesthetic concept to this early design was to significantly shape the future company’s world of figurines. On 28 November 1914, Grete Wendt sent the angel to her brother Johannes, a soldier on the front during World War I, as a special treat for Christmas.

"I came here from the forest. I tell you, it is a very holy night!” So begins the famous poem by Theodor Storm. This Santa Claus from Wendt & Kühn has also set out to bring joy to mankind and to make heart-felt dreams come true. A small Marguerite Angel helps to carry his load. Grete Wendt first breathed life into this harmonious pair in 1924.

Their green and orange dresses are imaginatively reminiscent of traditional Baltic folk art from the homeland of Olly Wendt, her artistic signature leaving its distinctive mark in the pattern. From over 520 rays and 400 points the magnificent gold highlighting is created.

The Richly Painted Angels, both 17 centimeters (6.7 inches) tall, provide a dramatic decorative effect, whether standing alone as a gracious solitary figure or together as a matched pair. And to ensure a perfect pairing, each of the color variants is available with the head turned slightly to the left or the right.

With their long flowing robes and golden wreaths of flowers on their heads are graceful and elegant: The Richly Painted Angels from Wendt & Kühn. Since autumn 2018, two musicians playing violins, each an impressive 17 centimeters in height, have been joining this exceptional product group. Arranged on a sideboard or shelf, these Angels create a real focal point all year round, on their own or as a pair.

By the way: With a steady hand the painter tirelessly applies almost one hundred dots to the Angel’s robe. And on her wings, tiny dots and hair-thin lines form a magnificent flower. Precise and detailed – masterly and artistic.

This majestic figurine designed in 1964 was the jewel in the crown of Grete Wendt’s career as a designer. The angel in her sweeping dress holds with pride a gold-colored candlestick. An exceptional design that proved to be the final one from this great designer. Previously it had existed only as a sample, just like many of the designs preserved in our archives – but since May 2016, after more than 50 years, it has been joining our collection for the very first time.

Blue wings, knee-length robes and blond hair – these are the features of our heavenly Angels wearing Crowns. They get their name from the golden crowns that adorn their heads. Olly Wendt (née Sommer), the creative designer who worked alongside Grete Wendt, designed these graceful yet childlike and joyful group of figurines pre-1937. After almost 80 years, this six-centimeter-high trio finally returned to the collection in May 2019.

A harmonious triad: While the first angel creates heavenly music with its small trumpet, the second provides earthly sustenance with its basket filled with juicy apples and delicious cookies. The third member of the group has the best task of all – carrying a beautifully wrapped gift.

You can almost hear the groaning of the little girl’s sleigh laden with all her goodies – in addition to the bright star, she’s pulling freshly baked bread, wine and even a splinter box, so popular throughout the Erzgebirge in former times for safekeeping small valuables. There’s a cold wind blowing outside, as evidenced by the girl’s warm scarf and thick wool socks. Her young companion is meanwhile keeping one hand warm in his pocket.

The delightful figurine composition was designed more than 40 years ago by Olly Wendt as a gift for friends and family. They were never produced in series and have been seen in 2014 for the very first time by the general public.

Conceived more than 40 years ago as a gift for family and friends by Olly Wendt, the creative designer at Grete Wendt’s side, the boy with tree first appeared to a large audience in autumn 2014 and has been spreading a touch of wintery spirit ever since. He has never been manufactured in volume before. Bundled up in his warm clothes and furnished with holiday accessories, this figurine will definitely make unusual accent pieces.

Four angels have taken their place in the bright light of the candles. Their heads adorned with crowns, their wings decorated with gold dots. Sitting close together they strike up heavenly melodies – two singers with song books accompanied by two flute players. Their dark red robes give them a festive look and provide an exciting contrast to the dark blue mound on which they are sitting. Twinkling stars and golden specks of light conjure up the night sky, which on this particular evening it lit with the most beautiful shower of stars.

This impressive reissue was modelled on candelabras designed pre-1937. Developing something new while at the same time preserving the unique character and timeless design of the original model presented both a challenge and an opportunity.

The candelabra, 18 centimeters in diameter and 21 centimeters high (without candles), has candle holders. These can hold both wax and LED candles.

Tradition has it that it was in 1922 that a man from neighboring Lippersdorf brought his old candle holder angel into the workshops of Wendt & Kühn to be repaired. Olly Sommer (later Wendt) liked this angel so much that she then interpreted the figurine in different colorways. We are reintroducing two of them this year. These slim angels are characterized by their traditional cylindrical form. This is atypical of the figurines of Wendt & Kühn whose turned components are usually cut diagonally to the axis and then reassembled at an angle. Just as important as their shape is their coloring – the graphic ornamentation and detailed patterns of leaves and flowers require huge talent and great skill.

A point of interest: During Advent these exceptional figurines still decorate the windows of Wendt & Kühn company buildings just as they did in the past, creating a festive atmosphere in both Grünhainichen and Seiffen.

The Erzgebirge Angel, a striking 40 centimeters high, has candle holders. These can hold both wax and LED candles. It is also available with electric lighting.

Inspired by an Angel with Candle Holder made in Lippersdorf, in 1923 Olly Wendt (née Sommer) used its form as the basis for her own painted figurine. Every Advent these Erzgebirge Angels grace the windows of the workshops in Grünhainichen. In addition, every Christmas a small series of these “Lippersdorf Angels” is produced in two different patterns and colorways, and put on sale in Wendt & Kühn’s own stores in Seiffen and Grünhainichen. They are also available with electric candles if required.

After more than 60 years, this traditional figurine from our legendary grand design legacy has been brought back to life once again: the Miner. With his impressive height and his smart black and green ceremonial uniform, this “Curiosity” will enrich our collection and will be manufactured exclusively to order. Tradition has it that it was on a particularly beautiful summer’s day in 1912 that Grete Wendt designed the Miner, three years before she founded Wendt & Kühn. Her inspiration had come from the Freiberg Miners’ Festival with its magnificent parade of miners. In what was the summer house of the vocational school in Grünhainichen she produced the designs for three smaller examples before she finally created this 30-centimeter-high Miner with his two candle holders. His presence and grace make him a stand-alone decorative piece that draws the eye of everyone who sees him.
