The sticker says its been in business 75 years. This traditional company was founded almost 200 years ago. The artistic skills of Johann Huggler (1834-1912) earned him the title of woodcarving king of Brienz. He became the driving force behind Brienz's woodcarving industry. His son, Hans Huggler-Wyss (1877-1947), continued the successful family tradition. In 1915, the creative artist Hans Huggler began producing novel nativity, folk and animal figurines with an exceptionally life-like and expressive quality for that time. To this day, these figures are still known well beyond Switzerland’s borders as Brienz nativity figurines.It is in perfect condition.The middle size cow is dated 1958, as a gift.
