Description

In the 1980's, my dad, Otto Werner (1923 - 1991) was commissioned to design and paint a series of 24 panels to be mounted as part of the Waterloo County, Ontario Canada heritage that illustrated some of the Pennsylvania Dutch Hex designs featured on many of the old Mennonite barns in the region. Each of these unique hex designs which represented good wishes and blessings, was incorporated into the gazebo design directly under the eaves. Shown here is the star, cloud, rain, flower hex symbol, a sign for rain, fertility and goodwill to all.

Today Dutch Hex Signs are enjoyed by people around the world who hang them on their sheds, homes, barns and garages, above doorways, in workshops, and many other locations. Order your reproduction canvas, acrylic prints or art prints - an excellent addition to your country or contemporary kitchen decor! Also great as cafe and deli decorator art prints!
