Deze figuren (de eigenlijke 'briefjes') werden uitgeknipt en gebruikt bij het koning-trekken op het Driekoningenfeest, dertien dagen na Kerstmis. Dan werd onder het feestvierend gezelschap een koning aangewezen, ofwel door het vinden van de boon in het toegewezen part van een koningsbrood, of door het trekken uit een omgekeerde hoed van het briefje waarop de koning stond.
