Graupner Pyramid 'Snowman' with 1 Tealight
H91374735
Regular price $79.95Our mini pyramid with snowman is a particularly popular motif. Numerous animals cavort in the snowy winter forest. The figure and all animals are hand-painted. The tea light pyramid in small format is always a great gift - be it for a dear friend, the (grand) children or as an original souvenir in winter. Of course you can also use it to make yourself happy and conjure up a modern decoration in miniature format.
Thanks to the innovative use of tea lights, our pyramids are particularly safe to use. We use commercially available tea lights with a diameter of 38 mm. A tealight is already included. The impeller, which is connected to the base plate by a metal rod, is driven by the rising heat of the candle.
As early as the 18th century, Christmas pyramids were part of the Christmas decorations in churches in the Ore Mountains. The special construction of the Göpel factory served as a model. This is what shaft hoisting systems are called, in which the mined ores are conveyed out of the pit using horsepower or water power. Even today, the pyramids of the Ore Mountains (Ore Mountain: "Peremett") with their warm candlelight and their regular movement create a cozy atmosphere. And they still fascinate children in particular with their small figures and colorful scenes.
We use sycamore maple as the wood for the assembly. The base of the pyramid is made of pine. The colors used contain particularly high-quality and lightfast pigments, which guarantee lasting brilliance and luminosity. They are certified according to the strict DIN EN71 guidelines for toys, and are naturally non-toxic and resistant to saliva.
Brilliant colors, flawless workmanship and a high level of craftsmanship complete the valuable wood into a hand-made, small, unique piece of folk art from the Ore Mountains.

Pyramids were already part of the Christmas decorations in churches in the Ore Mountains in the 18th century. The model was the special construction of the Göpelwerk. This is the name given to shaft conveyor systems in which the mined ore is extracted from the mine using horse or water power. Even today, the pyramids of the Ore Mountains (Ore Mountain dialect: "Peremett") create a cozy atmosphere with their warm candlelight and their uniform movement. And they still fascinate children in particular with their small figures and colorful scenes. The designer Katrin Baumann, who lives in the Ore Mountains, has been supporting us in the development of our wooden miniatures for more than 20 years. Together, based on trust, we constantly develop new and detailed ideas that can inspire people to use our original Ore Mountain wood art® through colors and shapes.
