makes lovely sets; the figures don't have faces, and are expensive, but
they are beautifully hand-made by a family in Northampton. You can buy the
pieces separately - handy if one of the shepherds gets lost, or if you want
to build up the set year by year as funds allow. The complete set as shown
is 120cm by 45cm (each figure is between 10cm and 18cm high), and costs
£389.75 including stable lights.
A basic set of Joseph, Mary, and Jesus in a manger is £36.20.
