Nativity Set from Bethlehem, hand-carved from olive tree wood, 11 parts, height: approx. 16 cms
This wonderfully smoothly polished nativity set relinquishes detail and elaborately carved faces in order to let the expressiveness of the wood grain come to the fore. Accordingly, these figures have a very pleasant tactile quality, which makes them popular with children, too.
The complete set is featuring the Virgin Mary, Joseph, the Infant Jesus lying in his manger, ox and donkey, the Three Wise Men, 1 shepherd and 2 sheep. Single groups are also available.
