Founded in 1929, Lotte Sievers-Hahn is a family run workshop based in Germany still in production today. Over the years, the company has created a wide collection of wooden toys and figurines, including amazing hand puppets. They are considered educational toys and receive the "spiel gut" (play well) label.
Here's one of their creations: a Gnome hand puppet. His head is carved from lime wood (basswood) and is beautifully hand painted. His vivid expression with animal fur beard is adorable. His body and hat are made from fabric. This puppet is not tagged and was likely made during the 60s. Little Gnome has been used and shows some wear with glue marks and stains on the body. Don't miss the opportunity to include this unusual Gnome character in your vintage collection!
