His black jacket is artfully decorated with gold buttons. The miners friendly face shines with alert eyes, rosy cheeks and a gray mustache. A green cap adorned with gold decorations sits atop his head. The attention to detail is evident in every fine nuance of his costume.The angel, on the other hand, wears a floor-length white dress that is decorated with gold decorations at the waist and hem. A colorful, yet subtle polka dot pattern adorns the dress in the chest and leg areas. The angels red wings are also decorated with a gold polka dot pattern, which underlines the grace and elegance of the figure.Both figures hold traditionally designed candles in their hands, which bathe the Ore Mountains in a warm light. The combination of miner and angel embodies the deep connection to regional history and culture. These masterfully crafted figurines are not only works of art, but also symbols of craftsmanship and dedication that are passed down from generation to generation.Height 9.5cmcoloured2 pcs.You can find more pretty miner and angel chandeliers from the Erzgebirgehere.
