Miniature lantern children, colorful by Romy Thiel from Deutschneudorf in the Erzgebirge
Tradition of the lantern children: A shining heritage from the Ore Mountains
The "Lantern Children, 2-piece, colorful" by Romy Thiel represent one of the most beautiful and emotional traditions in Germany, especially from the picturesque Ore Mountains in Deutschneudorf. This custom, known as the Lantern- or lantern parade, has its origins in a long-standing tradition, which is much more than just an autumnal festival. After dark, children parade through the streets or from house to house, singing with lanterns or lanterns to keep the tradition alive. This atmospheric event, often accompanied by a marching band, creates a sense of community and connection. Romy Thiels "Lantern children" capture this spirit perfectly and bring it into the homes as artistic miniatures.
Romy Thiel's masterful handiwork: A symbol of Erzgebirge art
Made in Romy Thiel's small, but fine manufactory in Deutschneudorf, the "Lantern Children" miniatures represent the high art of traditional craftsmanship from the Erzgebirge. These figures are part of the series "middle figures" and are characterized by their classic design and their colorful design. Made from local woods such as maple, beech, alder, ash, spruce, lime and pine, they symbolize the connection to nature and the artisan tradition of the region. Each piece is unique, made with attention to detail and great craftsmanship, to preserve the original Romy Thiel design. The "Lantern children" are therefore not only decorative objects, but also ambassadors of Erzgebirge craftsmanship.
Versatile treasures for the whole year
Although the lantern children are rooted in the tradition of the autumn lantern procession, they offer a warm and inviting atmosphere in any home as year-round decorations. Measuring 6 cm in height and 3 cm in width and length respectively, these miniatures are ideal, for adding a touch of tradition and history to interiors. Each set contains two of these delightful figurines, which can serve as both collector's items and gift ideas. They tell the story of a rich culture and a living custom, that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of the Erzgebirge. The "Lantern children" by Romy Thiel are therefore more than just decorative objects; they are a piece of living tradition, made with the precision and passion, that only genuine handcraft from the Ore Mountains can offer.
