Figures and settings of the collection
The collection includes all the figures needed to create a complete and meticulously arranged nativity scene. At its core is the Holy Family with Saint Joseph holding a lantern, Mary, and Baby Jesus resting in the crib. Alongside the main figures are the Three Wise Men Melchior, Balthazar and Caspar, depicted with precious gifts and solemn postures, as well as various accompanying figurines such as shepherds with lambs, the shepherdess with a water jug, and the hanging Gloria angel. Completing the scene are the animals for nativity scene in wood, including the ox, the donkey, and sheep and lambs in various poses, set within wooden nativity stables and houses featuring a single arch or an integrated golden star.
Guide to choosing and arranging the nativity set
To create a balanced display, you can opt for the complete arrangement or build the scene gradually over the years. Those with limited space or looking for an understated focal point on furniture and shelves can begin with the core Nativity group placed beneath the minimalist arch. For larger, more elaborate settings, gradually adding shepherds, flocks and the procession of the Magi creates a visual narrative rich in depth. The hand-painted finish enhances the natural warmth of the maple, making these sculptures suitable for both modern living rooms and traditional interiors seeking small wooden nativity sets of high decorative value.
