Wendt & Kühn Angels wearing Crowns, Angel with Basket

This angel arrives bearing a basket full of tiny delights—what appear to be apples and cookies shaped like stars and hearts, all suspended from a ribbon around the angel’s neck. One hand holds a star-shaped cookie aloft, as if proudly presenting a treat or about to share it with a friend. With its coral robe, golden crown, and blue wings, this figure fits beautifully within the Angels wearing Crowns collection, but stands out for its extraordinary detail. The level of artistry in this piece—down to the individual shapes in the basket and the lifelike gesture—makes it a standout addition for collectors.

Handcrafted in small numbers in the Wendt & Kühn workshop, each angel begins with carefully dried wood and is shaped, assembled, and painted entirely by hand. The design, first created by Olly Wendt before 1937, is a charming mix of playfulness and refinement—full of character and craftsmanship. It's no wonder that this particular angel is especially cherished among the collection.
