About the manufacturer: The family business Seiffener Kunsthandwerk Albin Preißler is the oldest manufacturer of Advent candle holders in the toy village of Seiffen in the Ore Mountains. Since its establishment in 1919, the Preißlers' workshop has been dedicated to crafting exquisite candle holders. Hugo Albin Preißler was already a turner and foreman in the light factory Zimmermann & Co. in the first years of the 20th century and became independent after the First World War. His son Albin Rudolf Preißler passed the master turner's examination in 1949, took over the business in 1953 and expanded the range to include the popular Christmas articles. Today, his daughter Steffi and her husband Hartmut Bauer run the workshop, which maintains the traditional Ore Mountains folk and wood art at a high level with real handwork. See less
