Thomas W.12/7/2025Es ist erfreulicherweise kein Buch, sondern nur ein Blatt Papier, man könnte es auch als Papyrus interpretieren, wenn man es in die orientalische einsetzt. Eine Schrift ist nicht zu erkennen auf dem Papier, das ist aber positiv, denn das wäre bei der abgebildeten Schrift ein Manko. TW

Domenico B.12/14/2024Great product well made looks the part fits well in my nativity. Ordered more
Patricia M.8/20/2023This woman with a book is a unique addition to our presepe. I try to reflect our family in the people and activities that I include in our presepe. Books have always been very special to our family, so this addition is very meaningful to us. She is dressed beautifully and is a perfect size. Thank you.

Maria C.2/27/2022Questa statuina e una vera star nel mio presepio. Vestito di stoffa molto ben curato e una espressione di viso perfetta. La contadina che legge e certamente molto particolare. Ottimo acquisto
