The original artist, Jim Shore, carved this from wood and it is wonderful. The reproductions appear to be cast from a plastic like resin material. The item still has to be hand painted and they have crafts people who do such a great job. I have posted this decoration in one of the past years but I did a new photo shoot yesterday. I was pleased that I was able to pick up the carved dimensions of the work.

What a lovely piece. I have admired Mr. Shore's work and your photos have captured the detail so well.
The nativity shot is wonderful!!
The Christ crib is very beautiful and the Angle too. Very good and beautiful work.
Yes ... The spirit of Christmas Present shows Scrooge the children called Igornance and Want. Very moving part of the story.
I have been gone for a while but hope to get back and enjoy your many fine photos of Iowa.
Take care.
