So lovely, each piece so beautifully made! Italians are really good artists making nativity figures.
Mine dates back 3 generations (bought by my grandparents) very old, except for the few pieces I made myself, like the tripod with fire, the water well, the background, the house extension (roof and walls), the clay-like oven and the pieces of baked bread, just little additions that I had fun making.
@Carazaa Yes it does, doesn't it? As a child , I used to look at them and imagined them moving and thought of the things they lacked so since it was passed down to me, every year I add something new ☺️
I have a creche from Jerusalem. Bought it at a world Christmas fair. Wooden carved animals and wise men and shepherds and the babe. Creche is made of wood. It is lovely.
