Goebel - Figurine - Kerstgroep 13-delig - Porcelain

An exceptionally charming and sought-after nativity set from the popular “Nina & Marco” collection by the renowned German brand Goebel. This beloved series was designed in close collaboration with artist Julia E. Limpke. The figurines are distinguished by their expressive, large children’s eyes and their gentle, innocent expressions.
This is the larger and rarer version of the nativity scene. The standing figures are an impressive approximately 15 cm tall, allowing the details to shine beautifully. All the figurines are made from high-quality bisque porcelain (matte porcelain) and hand-painted in characteristic soft pastel shades with subtle dotted and hatched details.
The 13-piece set consists of:
-Baby Jesus in the manger
-Mary
-Joseph
-The Three Kings / Wise Men from the East (Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar)
-A shepherd holding a lamb
-Two Christmas angels
-The donkey
-A camel
-A little sheep
-The ox

Condition:
The nativity set is in excellent condition, with minimal signs of age. For full transparency, the following two professional repairs are noted:
1. The donkey: One leg was neatly glued in the past.
2. One of the Kings: There is a small chip on the lower edge/reverse of the cloak, which has been expertly touched up. It is absolutely unnoticeable when displayed and does not detract from the decorative value of this set.
A breathtaking, complete centerpiece for the upcoming holiday season and a valuable addition for any Goebel collector!
