Know before you buy
The figurine is designed with a removable section, typically at the waist or torso, which allows you to lift the top half to place small treats or trinkets inside the base.
No, this item is intended for indoor use only. Because it is crafted from traditional paper mache, it should be kept away from moisture, humidity, and direct outdoor elements to preserve the hand-painted finish.
Every genuine Ino Schaller candy container is signed and stamped by the artist. You will find these markings on the piece, confirming it was produced in Bavaria using their original antique molds.
While the glitter is applied as part of the professional hand-painting process, it is a decorative accent. You may experience minor shedding during initial handling, so it is best to place the figurine in a stable location where it won't be moved frequently.
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a gentle dusting brush to remove surface dust. Avoid using water, cleaning sprays, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the hand-painted details and the paper mache structure.
