Introduction

Handcrafts and fostering of traditions are once again highly regarded in our modern world. The Erzgebirge and Toy Village of Seiffen particularly have a lot to offer in this area. The new beginning of our company in the summer of 1990 was at a time when our area and its typical folk art received a lot of attention due to the opening of the borders. It is becoming more popular from year to year for more and more families, and not only in Germany, to decorate their homes with nutcrackers, smoker and pyramids during the holiday season. We risked developing our company based on this fact and by trusting the skills of our workers.

Wood-turning and painting of wooden figurines, looking after and building on the existing wealth of products, as well as introducing the customs of the Erzgebirge to others are our daily work. We invite you to participate in our work. We have opened a demonstration workshop, an extensive showroom that displays the wide variety of our treasures and our Raststueb´l will take care of your well-being. The Seiffen Toy Museum and the famous Seiffen church are in the immediate vicinity of our company.

The following presentation will introduce you to our world and hopefully give you interesting information about the Erzgebirge and the Richard Glaesser company in Seiffen.
