Each mold is carefully painted by one of several talented artists. Enamel paint is applied with special Rotmarderhaar (Red Martin Hair) brushes. These brushes, along with the skill of the artist, allow for the extremely fine detail that all Wilhelm Schweizer pieces are known for. Since each piece is hand painted by an individual artist, the colors from piece to piece may vary, thus making each piece unique. Any small imperfections that you might notice are a sign of their handcrafted workmanship.
