The Bethlehem Crib is a family center from December until Mid-January. The sculptures are made of finest regional wood of our Val Gardena and are handpainted. The dresses of the Holy Family are true to detail. The stable is a most wonderful copy of an ancient Dolomite stable. All figurines correspond in their sizes to the stable and to each other. To our Bethlehem crib belong all regional animals, the cock, hen, scheep, goat, cats, dogs. The shepherds are stand-alone figures or are made together with their animals. The women and sheperds are clad in customary dresses. With the Bethlehem crib go many tools and utensils, as they were used in our valley in the past.
Early January the Three Magi are decorated with their gifts together wiith camel, elephant, camel driver, bonfire. All figurines can be collected over the years. The Bethlehem crib is a gift to one’s own family. It is a gift of value and of increasing value.

The Salcher Crib is unique in its own way. We can truly say, it exists only once in this form. Mary and Joseph hold each others hands and look at one another. The infant Jesus can lie in the cradle or in the bosom of Saint Mary. The sculptures are made of finest regional wood and are handpainted. The stable is available in different versions, as a harborage, or as an oriental stable, just as you wish for. The three Magi come in January. You can select the animals to your choice. The size of the Holy Family corresponds to the stable. The Salcher crib is of outstanding make and beauty and could truly have a place in God’s Corner all over the year.
The Morgenstern Crib gives a picture of the Holy Family in a clear, almost modern form. It is well-liked by young families with small children. The sculptures honour our artists in the same way as all the other cribs do. The Morgenstern crib in ash-wood shows the wonderful lively grain this wood has. The figurines are painted in water-colours and highlight the beauty of the wood. The Morgenstern crib is presented on a board, that can be extended with the years for more figurines to be collected.
