/As we’re all preparing for Christmas early this year, why not try and WIN one of these stunning wooden gifts from Erzgebirge crafts!
Based in Saxony region of Germany, the Erzgebirge is known for its high-quality decorative wooden items that bring joy and happiness to your friends and family, especially around the festive period.
Erzgebirge wooden crafts come from a long line of traditions starting in the 17th century. Erzgebirge was an old mining town but eventually, the townsmen needed another way to make income. They began to make wooden toys, figurines and Christmas decorations that everyone loved to have in their homes. Some of the most popular being nativity pieces, nutcrackers, pyramids and candle arches with beautiful creatures and figures within the designs.
A piece we all love is the famous Nutcracker Soldier, which is synonymous with the festive period and can be seen around Europe in the wonderful Christmas markets. Did you know nutcrackers were so called because they were used to crack nuts to eat around Christmas time? Now they are just used as decorative items and some people even collect them to put on display every Christmas. You can win your very own Nutcracker by entering the giveaway at the end of the post!
Whatever the occasion, finding unique gifts that the recipient doesn’t already have can be a challenge. Wooden gifts are something to treasure and create lasting memories. At a time when we are all becoming more conscious about what we purchase, these items are something that will be passed down to other family members and become part of your traditions.
Finding keepsakes that are unique and will last is not easy amongst the sheer amount of choice we have on offer nowadays. This is what makes a wooden gift from an artisan producer so appealing. When giving a wooden gift, you can show the receiver that you’ve put a lot of thought into their present.
The gifts available in Erzgebirge are also incredibly beautiful and being classic items they fit with every style of home decor. They often become a focal point that people will love seeing and commenting on as they visit around the holidays.
