It's Christmas Eve and the moon is full. The stars are out. The snow sparkles and seem to glow this night. The churches are lit and inviting all to celebrate the birth of Christ. What a perfect night to enjoy the journey to midnight mass as these people in Russia might have done in times past. These incredible scenes were designed and painted by Irina Kummer. This snowy stacking doll has been a perennial favorite among discerning collectors for quite a few years. The doll is entirely hand painted by Irina Kummer for the Golden Cockerel. The artist painstakingly hand paint every detail, beginning with backgrounds and moving to the finer elements that require a brush of very select Siberian squirrel hair. Then the dolls have multiple layers of non-toxic water-based lacquer applied. Size of the Largest Piece: 10 inches in height The Nesting Set Includes: Ten Christmas Eve Scenes in a Blue Winter Wonderland Please note that the smaller pieces can be very small. Please make sure your recipient is old enough and wise enough not to swallow the characters (around three and older).
