Walter Werner Figuren
Germany
Height: 6" (15cm)
The carved wooden tree ("spanbaum") is one of the most typical examples of Erzgebirge folk art, so much so that several woodcarvers incorporate it into their workshops' logos. This smaller tree by the Walter Werner workshop is a handsome piece in its own right, but is also wonderful grouped with the smaller tree or with some of the Werner carved wooden animals. Such carving requires a great amount of skill, for the spanbaum is a single piece of wood "shaved" into its finished form.
