Materials & Care

The stable is constructed from natural driftwood pieces assembled into an open A-frame structure, with a carved wooden star at the apex. The three figures are real oyster shells with gold-painted edges, arranged to represent the Holy Family. Because this piece incorporates natural materials, wood grain, shell coloration, and texture will vary slightly from piece to piece. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from prolonged moisture or direct sunlight to preserve the natural wood and shell finish.

Why You'll Love It

Each piece carries the inherent variation of natural driftwood and real oyster shells, making it genuinely one of a kind. The gold-rimmed shells bring a refined detail to an otherwise rustic form, and the open-frame stable keeps the design light and uncluttered. The compact scale fits comfortably on nearly any surface without dominating the space.
