Description from the seller

Artisan Shell Nativity Scene Bursa Rubeta – Silver-plated Sacred Nativity and Silver Glitter – Made in Italy

refined handmade nativity scene crafted inside a splendid natural Bursa Rubeta shell, enhanced by a delicate representation of the Sacred Nativity with miniature figures plated in silver.

An original creation that fuses the charm of the sea with the Italian traditional nativity, turning an authentic shell into a small work of art rich in elegance and spirituality.

**THE ARTISANAL COMPOSITION**

The Bursa Rubeta shell stands out for its distinctive sculptural structure, characterized by irregular reliefs, small natural protrusions, and alluring ivory, cream, and golden-brown hues.

Its wide opening reveals an interior in warm orange-toned and mother-of-pearl shades, creating a striking contrast with the silver decorations.

At the center lies a refined **Sacred Nativity scene**, composed of small figures representing Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus, embellished with a bright silver-plated finish.

The miniatures are arranged on a decorative base covered with **silver glitter**, which gently reflects the light and enhances the entire composition.

At the top, an elegant **silver Shooting Star with sparkling details** completes the scene, evoking one of Christmas’s most representative symbols.

The natural characteristics of the shell and the handcrafted workmanship make each piece unique.

Seller's Story

My creations are born at the heart of Italy’s artisanal tradition in Torre del Greco, a world-renowned symbol for coral processing and cameo carving. Each piece of jewelry is the result of knowledge handed down through generations: the coral is carefully selected, the cameo hand-carved by master artisans, every detail refined according to techniques that belong to the history of Mediterranean jewelry art. I believe in authenticity, in natural materials and in the value of manual work. For this reason I offer only pieces that embody identity, culture and passion, pure expressions of Italian excellence. Each object is not just a piece of jewelry, but a fragment of tradition that continues to live on through time.
