Description from the seller

Christmas group, wood, Congo, 20th century

Professionally shipped — more than 800 five-star reviews worldwide.

This 10-piece wooden nativity scene was hand-carved in Congo. The figurines have a simple, stylized design that lightly resembles the Art Deco period. Jesus is surrounded by Mary and Joseph, with the three wise men, two shepherds, and a sheep nearby. The figures have a calm, balanced appearance and showcase the African interpretation of the Christmas story.

Height of the largest figurine approximately 14 cm, in perfect condition.

Please look at the photos carefully, they are part of the description.

Shipped with track & trace.
