Wendt and Kühn Grünhainichen Gold Edition No. 14 Angel / The Discoverer with Sea Shell

Posted on September 28, 2021 | 0 Comments

Wendt and Kühn's new Gold Edition for 2021 is No. 14, Grünhainichen Angel with a Sea Shell, the Discoverer.  

The Discoverer gently holds in its hands a finely crafted shell, a symbol of all the precious things we find on our journey through life. It is a receptacle, too, for all our personal memories. A wonderful gift for shell collectors, young and old. For those who love the sound of the sea and nature's treasures and for those who are on the road to find themselves. The shell is decorated with fine converging lines and is plated in 24-karat-gold.

It is available in two different versions. Above you will find the Discoverer by itself with the gold-plated sea shell. The Discoverer is also available with a gold-plated sea shell and base and is in a splintered wood box.

And it comes with your choice of hair color - blonde or brunette. 

Each new edition to the Gold collection feels even more special than the last.

Wendt and Kühn Angel Musician with Bass Flute - New for 2021

Posted on April 16, 2021 | 0 Comments

Wendt and Kühn Angel Musician with Bass Flute - New for 2021

     

"The bass flute is a member of the flute family. It is in the key of C, pitched one octave below the concert flute. Despite its name, its playing range makes it the tenor member of the flute family. Because of the length of its tube (approximately 146 cm (57 in)), it is usually made with a J-shaped head joint, which brings the embouchure hole within reach of the player. It is usually only used in flute choirs, as it is easily drowned out by other instruments of comparable register, such as the clarinet."  Wikipedia

2-1/2" tall

WK no. 650/82 with a Wendt and Kühn Presentation / Gift Box

A delightful addition to your collection.
