Description
Hungry critters await the nutty porridge served up by this delightful chef. This figure stands alone or can be paired with the squirrel on crate and extra squirrel sold separately or as a set. Add to your LEPI Kastlunger Nativity scene with the chef with porridge. Introduced in 2016. Stable not included.
This 5.25 inch scale (13 cm) Nativity set is hand-carved from Alpine Maple, which is indigenous to the Groden Valley and is used for all LEPI woodcarvings. The wood is dried naturally for two years, then kiln dried for two weeks, reducing the wood to a moisture content of 8-12%. This enables the carvings to be in families for generations without any cracking or damage to the wood. Purchases of any LEPI woodcarvings are viewed as family heirlooms and are passes from generation to generation. Each piece of this exquisite Nativity has been hand-carved and hand-painted in the LEPI workshops in Italy after the original models made by the master woodcarver Harald Kastlunger. This expressive Nativity is not only an heirloom, but a magnificent work of art!
