Our kits are unfinished or partially-assembled pieces — pyramids, nutcrackers, ornaments, smokers, and candle holders — designed for anyone who wants to build or paint their own piece of Erzgebirge craftsmanship rather than buy a finished one. Each kit includes the pre-cut or pre-turned wooden components along with instructions, so the woodturning and shaping is already done by hand in Germany. It's a popular option for hobbyists, for parents looking for a holiday craft project with kids, and for collectors who want a more personal connection to a piece. Skill level varies by kit, so check the individual product description before choosing one.
