Smokers

For thousands of years, incense has been the gift of kings, as precious as gold and gems. In the mid-1800s wooden smoking men (räuchermann), carved in the age-old tradition from quality hardwoods, became decorative holders for this valuable commodity.

In our collection of smokers from in and around the small town of Seiffen, near Germany's border with the Czech Republic, you will find charming figures fashioned with quaint details which bring to life all the enchantment of German folk traditions.

A lit cone of incense turns the hollow wooden smoker into a fragrant and attention-getting conversation piece.
