Unique Nativity Scene
Designed by Grete Wendt in 1910/11, the design was ahead of its time: the linear and minimalist style of the figurines is reminiscent of that first seen in the work of the Bauhaus artists in 1919. To this day, the group of figurines is characterized by a modern design and impresses with its clear lines.
Magnificent decorative pieces
With its long flowing robe and golden wreath of flowers on its head, the Richly Painted Angel from Wendt & Kühn is both graceful and elegant. At an impressive 17 centimeters high, the angel creates a real focal point all year round – whether on a sideboard or a shelf. Add some sheet music or a book of music to create an arrangement. A violin bow complements the scene perfectly.

The art of craftsmanship
Wendt & Kühn has stood for fine German craftsmanship at its most beautiful since 1915. At Wendt & Kühn, the mastery and artistry of figurine manufacturing has been passed down from generation to generation. We draw on a wealth of original samples and designs in conscientiously developing them in contemporary interpretations.
Exceptional gift ideas
Spreading joy
Wendt & Kühn figurines are never more popular gifts than at Christmas time. Angel musicians take their place in the Grand Orchestra and music boxes fill the air with heavenly tunes. Richly painted angels adorn the festively decorated rooms, and the industrious Marguerite Angels arrive just in time to help Santa Claus. Enchant your loved ones this Christmas with treasures large and small from our collection.
Little Christmas Worlds
Decorating
The most beautiful Christmas decorations are those that tell a story. And our figurines were created to do just that. Set these little helpers into a scene befitting them and in which their accessories add the perfect touch. They will add a little Christmas spirit to many places in your home without being overwhelming. These bakers, for example, can be placed on a kitchen shelf, a baking dish serving as a small stage on which they proudly present their creations, whetting our appetite for homemade Christmas cookies, gingerbread and stollen.
The sound of Christmas
Magical music boxes
Wendt & Kühn’s precious and timelessly beautiful music boxes combine seasonal tunes such as “Silent Night” and “We wish you a Merry Christmas” with charming scenes. Angels, Santa Claus and his hard-working helpers tell stories full of harmony and love.
Christmas tree decorations
The Eleven Dot Angels first appeared on a decorated Christmas tree in the mid-1920s and were joined later by the Marguerite Angels. On Christmas trees and floral arrangements these heavenly messengers still make eyes light up and the whole room sing.
Creating special stages
For many collectors their host of angels has now become a full blown orchestra. Wendt & Kühn’s Angel Mountains make a stylish setting for major performances by these angel musicians. There is plenty of space for the angels to expresses themselves musically on the three, five and even six-tiered mountains.
An ambassador for children’s rights
A project close to our hearts
Eleven Dot Angels have the power to keep childhood memories alive and to bring joy to young and old alike. All the harmony and childlike innocence conveyed by our figurines, however, must be set against the harsh reality that not all children in this world enjoy a carefree childhood. This is where the obligation of the “grown-ups” starts, to ensure that the children of today and tomorrow grow up in a loving environment. With the help of the Eleven Dot Angels’ inherent strength and the open hearts of Wendt & Kühn fans we wish to support the work of the World Childhood Foundation Germany going forward. The Foundation was founded 25 years ago by Her Majesty Queen Silvia of Sweden.
