Richard-Glaesser Angels

The angel enjoys special significance in the Ore Mountains.
Above all, she represents the miner's wife, bringing light into his life. It s still a popular custom in the Ore Mountains to display as many Christmas angels in the window in Advent as there are girls in the house - together with as many Christmas miners as there are boys.
One category among GLaeSSER's typically unique designs consists of angels' bakeries.
Crafted on a lathe and then lovingly painted, the angels can be seen baking Stollen — the traditional German Christmas cake.
