Make Christmas Even More Fun With A Traditional German Smoker
If you love a little bit of magic at Christmas, then consider placing a traditional German Smoking Man (“Räuchermännchen'') in your house this year. Smoking men represent another great tradition that originated from the Ore Mountains, otherwise known as Erzgebirge - a low mountain range in the east of Germany, synonymous with the creation of many fascinating Christmas decorations including Nutcracker Dolls and Christmas Pyramids.
What is a German Smoker?
Available in a huge variety of designs, typically a smoking man is an incense smoker, who features as the form of a little wooden figurine with a hollow cavity around the mouth area, in which an incense candle or cone can be placed. Once lit, take delight in watching the smoke rise out of the figurine's mouth, spreading a magical fragrance around your home and chosen space.
Why Do Smoking Men Smoke Incense?
For five thousand years, incense, like gold spices and gems, has been revered as one of the most precious gifts of kings and emperors. The festivity of the Three Wise Men is still celebrated in Germany on January 6. Christian and Germanic folklore led people to believe that the evil spirits of the “Raunaechte” (longest nights of the year) could be driven away by noise and light (see our Christmas Pyramids). Once the devils and evil spirits had left the house, fine incense was burned to bless health and the home. So be sure to let one of our smoking men bless your home this Christmas with your desired incense fragrance.
Consider a Smoking Man This Christmas
Wildly popular across the German Christmas markets, smoking men are a fun and treasured Christmas decoration across all of Europe. Perhaps this Christmas why not consider a traditional Christmas decoration from the heart of Germany that is both unique and different to the standard Christmas decorations that you will find across many big brand retailers in Australia. Not only will it create a talking point amongst your family and friends; it will also fill your home with the magical aura of burning incense- available in a huge range of scents to suit your exact tastes.
