Graupner Pyramid "Christmas Market Children" with 1 Tea Light

The colorful and richly decorated miniature Christmas pyramid is one of our bestsellers. All figures and details are hand-painted. The tea light pyramid in small format is always a popular gift - be it for a dear friend, the (grand) children or as an original gift at Christmas time. 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.
