OUR COLLECTION — ASIA — CHINA  172. SMALL NATIVITY WITH BAMBOO STABLE

Picture
The small figures in this Nativity set are carved from linden wood, while the circular walls and sliding doors of the stable are bamboo. The set includes the Holy Family that are all one piece of wood (a great unity feature!), three shepherds, one donkey, four sheep, one standing camel and two sitting camels, and three wise men (two are kneeling). The stable measures 6 inches by 6 inches and includes a star. The tallest standing wise man and standing camel measure 2 inches tall. This piece is carved more simply than the other Chinese items (e.g., no facial details), but is still well done.
​
This item comes from the only Christian woodcarving workshop in China, located in China's Zhejiang province, an area famous for all types of wood carving.
