Seiffener Volkskunst Schalling Nativity Scene – Star with Base

This Star with Base is a luminous and symbolic centrepiece for your Schalling Nativity Scene. Standing 23 cm tall, it features a glowing star rising above a resting lamb—an image of peace, warmth, and quiet reverence. A hidden switch, shaped like a tiny sheep, controls the gentle LED light, making this piece a delight for both children and adults. Crafted from natural wood and carefully lacquered by hand, the star casts a warm, inviting glow without the clutter of cords. (Requires two AAA batteries, not included.)

In a Nativity Scene, every figure and detail carries meaning—and this illuminated star draws the eye to the heart of the story. Designed to complement the 12 cm figure series, it can be displayed freely thanks to its cordless design. Paired with the optional wooden Arch, it beautifully frames the entire scene, creating a complete and cohesive holiday display. Whether you're just beginning your collection or adding the final touches, this star is a stunning way to bring it all together. View the full Schalling Nativity Scene collection here ›
