The figure is handcrafted from natural, native Saxon woods. It features a natural finish that highlights the grain and quality of the timber.
The Joseph Fröhlich smoker stands at a height of 23 units, making it a substantial piece for a mantel, shelf, or holiday display.
No, this is a limited edition collectible. It is meticulously crafted by MÜLLER to honor the historical figure of the Royal Electoral Court Juggler.
Because it is made of natural wood, it should be kept in a dry environment away from direct heat sources. You can gently dust it with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its appearance.
