Bettina Franke's Charming Santas
Posted on December 02, 2017 | 0 Comments
We have carried a selection of Bettina Franke's delightful folk art from the beginning of My Growing Traditions - first discovering her workshop in the Seiffen area in the late 1990s.
Coming from a family of woodcarvers (including a great-great-grandfather, her grandfathers [in the 1930s] and her mother [beginning in 1956], who was one of the first women woodcarvers), in 1981 Bettina completed her master craftsman training and founded her own company under the "Gänseliesel" brand -
We are especially fond of her Santas and are proud to carry her Santa Gift Box
as well as her Santa Pulling a Sled
Her Santas are simply delightful!
