Volkmar Wagner Woodturning Workshop

The Volkmar Wagner Woodturning Workshop is known for its playful snowman figures, in addition to classic Christmas decorations. The big world of little snowmen was created in the small town of Hainichen between Dresden and Chemnitz. Volkmar Wagner became a "Männel maker" in 1983, when he began to gain experience with a new hobby in his own home, equipped with a drill and woodturning book. He was fascinated by the art of woodturning, and his turned figures made of maple wood soon became so popular that he began training as a woodturner and was able to produce his "Männel" in his own workshop from 1989. The first Wagner snowmen saw the light of day in 1993. Later, other products such as pyramids and Advent candlesticks were added to the range. But the success of the funny snowmen, who delighted people as skiers, snowball throwers and musicians, caused the range to grow quickly. Over 350 different motifs are now available. Inspired by the bright characters, “Stories from Snowman Land” are even sold as children’s books. Snowmen by Volkmar Wagner They are in a great mood whatever they do and are never bored! The Wagner snowmen work in the snow, sell their tiny likenesses in a tray or can be found ice fishing or curling. Some snow girl motifs also enrich the range. Several series such as “Snowman Junior”, the Wagner snowman musicians or the modern “City Kids” invite you to collect them and can be presented perfectly on the Wagner musicians’ plates. Wagner Snowman Junior The “Snowman Junior” series delights with figures that are always laughing happily and cute bobble hats. The little, natural wood-colored guys experience their adventures in the snow on all imaginable supports, whether sitting, standing or lying down. In ski school, on the racing sled or upside down as a freestyle snowboarder, they love to go full throttle. Sweet gift ideas are also the snowman junior with a gingerbread heart or the little snowman hidden in a wooden barrel. Wagner snowman musicians This is where the music plays! The white-glazed Wagner snowman musicians wear top hats and form a whole snowman combo with all kinds of different instruments and passionate singers. Here the cymbals are hit, the keys are banged on the piano and the harp is plucked. As a perfect backdrop for collectors, we recommend the conductor with music stands and a musicians' plate for a stylish staging of the orchestra. Volkmar Wagner City Kids The young snowmen like it casual. Whether with headphones around their necks or a ghetto blaster to their ears - these cool fellows take it easy. "MCity Kid Jayson" cheekily gives the thumbs up with his skateboard under his arm, an upside-down cap and stylish shoes. "City Kid Stella" seems to have had a successful shopping trip with her three bags, while "City Kid Lennart" is really proud of his solved Rubik's Cube, true to hipster style. The bold color accents of the clothing underline the modern image of today's Wagner snowman youth. Volkmar Wagner pyramids and Advent candlesticks The funny snowmen by Volkmar Wagner also romp around on pyramids and Advent candlesticks. On the 1-story pyramid "Snowmen in the Forest" you can observe animals that have made themselves comfortable mainly on the branches of the tree rotating in the center. The Advent candlestick is also decorated with a turned Christmas tree, under which the snowmen are eagerly feeding rabbits. Both the pyramid and the Advent candlestick are glazed in warm wood tones, so that the natural grain of the wood is beautifully shown off and underlines the careful craftsmanship. The snowmen’s red carrot noses add colorful accents.
