This adorable, red nativity silhouette has a traditional nativity scene cutout to make for a wonderful holiday season display. The design is hand-crafted from a hard shell gourd by a small team of expert crafters. Each detail has been hand-cut and can be lit with a battery-operated tea light (sold separately). The piece is hand-dyed a rich red color that is perfect for the Christmas season.

Because this design is crafted using a natural gourd, each piece is ever so slightly different to make for a unique artisan piece with natural variance in color and size.
Meadowbrooke
The story begins with one farmer and the seeds from two gourds he found by accident. This accident turned into a dream that has lasted more than twenty years. It was during a trip to New England that he first saw fresh gooseneck gourds. He brought them home to the Central Pennsylvania area to grow and sell fresh in the fall along with pumpkins.
Ben Bear, that farmer, also had a background in carpentry and in the off winter months he began using the wood tools on the hard-shelled gourds, he crafted his first creations – bells, tiny birdhouses, and snowmen. This was the beginning of this crazy dream called Meadowbrooke Gourds.
