A vintage nativity creche of rustic construction, designed for a tabletop Christmas display. The structure is built from wood or fiberboard panels, finished throughout in a matte black paint. The pitched roof is embellished with natural organic materials including dried moss, small twigs, and coarse fibers to simulate a thatched appearance. The interior floor and back panel are also painted black and filled with a quantity of light-coloured wood-shaving excelsior to represent stable bedding. Additional moss detailing is applied to the base plate. A small metal screw eye hook is fixed to the front peak of the roof, intended for the suspension of a star or angel ornament. The left exterior pillar bears a white adhesive label printed with HCP Auctions South West and the number 512. A piece of pale green adhesive tape is present on the right front pillar.
