The first Blossom Child to see the light of day was the Girl with Marguerite in 1929. The choice of this flower is no surprise as it was Grete and Olly Wendt’s favorite flower. A supplement to the 1933/34 catalogue features the first six Blossom Kinder, who have remained unchanged to this day and have been a constant feature of the Grünhainichen workshops’ collection ever since. In the years up until 1937 further children followed, with the number growing to 18 figurines.

In response to repeated requests from our collectors, we have over the past few years started to augment this popular series of figurines with the utmost care, using original historic designs that remain true in their form and color to the legacy of our company founder Grete Wendt.

These carefree children with their spring, summer and fall flowers accompany you throughout the whole year and provide inspiration for delightful decorations in every season. What is most striking is their oversized flowers. With this Grete Wendt stylized them into something meaningful and symbolic. No two Blossom Kinder are the same. Each one is unique - with its own style, body language and characteristic clothing.

Take a close look and discover the multitude of tiny details that Grete Wendt used to give each Blossom Child its own personality: the narrow border of flowers around the hem of the dress of the Girl with Four Leaf Clover, the pretty pattern on the bonnet of the Girl with Bluebell and the striped beanie of the Boy with Poppy.
