Nativiy Figures
The standing St. Joseph is always used to determine the size of Nativity figures.
He gets simply measured from head to toe.
All other figures are adjusted proportionally.
Kneeling or lying shepherds, elephant, camel, sheep, animals and other objects in the
Category of nativity figures are always proportionally adjusted.
Example:
You decide to buy nativity figures in 10 cm. So you buy the Holy Family in 10 cm.
All other nativity figures: kneeling or lying shepherds, elephant, camel, sheep, animals and others
Items, you select the same size, 10 cm.
Crib stable
With crib stables it`s exactly the same. So, that you as a customer, can find easily the right size of a
crib stable, we also use the size of the nativity figures as indication of size.
If you have nativity figures with a height of 10 cm, you also purchase the crib stall in the size of 10 cm.
Thus, you are sure that the stable is also the right size for your crib figures, and therefore not too small but not too big.
