Quantity
A classic mid-century nativity scene from the days when bringing out the wooden stable marked the official start of Christmas decorating. It features a dark-stained wooden lean-to stable topped with a textured straw roof, complete with six hand-painted figures including Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus in the manger, two sheep, and a standing shepherd. The piece carries the gentle, honest wear that only comes from decades of careful seasonal display. It is a heartwarming nostalgic centrepiece for a vintage Christmas collector, looking right at home on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or windowsill.

How It Came to Us
Found packed away in a box of cherished family Christmas decorations, we kept the whole scene together so it can continue its holiday tradition in a new home
Care & Display
Sold as a collector’s piece and for seasonal display. Dust gently with a soft, dry brush—avoid water or harsh cleaners on the straw roof and painted finishes. Store wrapped in tissue paper in a cool, dry place away from damp and direct sunlight. It looks wonderful displayed on a mantle or shelf alongside vintage fairy lights and greenery.
Shipping: Royal Mail 48 (2–3 working days), boxed in extra bubble wrap and padding to protect the straw roof and delicate figures.
