This set works the same way. Place it on a mantel, a bookshelf, a side table, or alongside a nativity scene you already own, and it reads as part of a larger arrangement rather than a single ornament.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: 'Jost', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; color: #3A322B; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0 0 1.2em;\"\u003e\n  The figures are built from dough rather than ceramic, which gives them a lighter feel and a softer, more hand-touched surface. Raised floral detail on the manger, the gloss of the sealed paint, and small differences from one figure to the next are the marks of handwork.
