Forest Gnome Bockwurst Lover

Description of the Forest Gnome Bockwurst Lover: The bockwurst lover once again lives up to his name at this festival. He is the last of the twenty gnomes from our gnomes' story. Like his predecessors, he makes a lively contribution to the success of the festival. He has taken on the task of serving, cooking, and roasting the sausages, which are available in a variety of ways at the festival. Serving delicious mustard and ketchup, as well as the all-important bread roll. He also has the urge to quench his thirst with beer, but he is happy to pass the glass on to the guests if necessary. He must be careful not to trip over the mushrooms, cones and natural materials lying in front of his feet.

We hope you have a lot of fun with the little man, which we manufacture in small numbers in Aue, in handcraft from the Ore Mountains in many production steps such as sawing, grinding, turning, painting, and gluing.

The color of the hair and the beard are depending on the nature of the fur we use.

Forest Gnome Bockwurst Lover - Handmade by Drechselwerkstatt Uhlig, Germany

For many years, our family has been associated with the traditional art of turning and carving in the Ore Mountains. In 1990 we turned our hobby into a profession and founded our family business, which became a registered craft business in 1993. Just four years later, the old production facility had become too small. We moved to a new building and expanded the range of services.

Committed to tradition, we are inspired by our homeland, the beautiful Ore Mountains. This is how the idea of our gnomes came about, which is characterized by their special beard design made of natural fur. Therefore, each incense smoker is different and has a unique appearance.

We make our distinctive incense smokers from local woods such as pine, ash, and beech. By incorporating natural materials such as cones, branches, moss, berries and felt, we give our gnomes a traditional look. You can usually recognize the real Uhlig smoker gnomes by the special shape of their beards. We always try to preserve the natural structure of the wood, even using parts with a colored design.

We are also happy to fulfill your individual wishes. Take your time and experience a piece of unmistakable Erzgebirge tradition and craftsmanship.
