Initially, wooden toys and dolls were carved, later secular art like mountain men and hunters. The world-wide recognition of the carvers skills following the example of Johann Dominik Mahlknecht (1793-1876), the appointed the state artist, encouraged the carvers to create new ideas and models. This has led to museum-quality works, and a growing reputation of 1st-class artistry.
