Know before you buy
This piece is created using traditional paper mache techniques in Bavaria, Germany. Artisans use original antique molds to shape the container, ensuring it maintains the authentic look and feel of vintage holiday decor.
Yes, it is designed as a functional candy container. The top section lifts off, allowing you to store small treats inside, though many collectors prefer to display it as a decorative piece.
Every genuine Ino Schaller container features a signature and an official stamp on the bottom. These markings confirm that the item was produced in their German workshop.
The glitter is applied as part of the hand-painting process to provide a festive sparkle. While it is securely adhered, it is normal for a very small amount of loose glitter to be present due to the nature of the traditional hand-finishing.
Because this is a delicate, hand-painted paper mache collectible, you should avoid using water or cleaning agents. Use a soft, dry brush or a gentle duster to remove dust from the surface.
