Mushroom picker 4 cm

As soon as the first autumn rains fall, the forests of Provence fill with watchful walkers. In the pine woods and under the oaks, they hunt for porcini (cèpes), fleshy, fragrant mushrooms cooked with garlic and parsley or in an omelet. Our picker returns from his foraging with this treasure of the woods.

In the Nativity scene, he represents the seasonal activities that set the rhythm of country life. Place him at the edge of a grove or on a path, between the woodcutter and the truffle hunter, to evoke the Provence of wooded hills.

At 4 cm, he fits into a medium-sized Nativity scene. This scale lets you create a complete landscape, with forests, paths and villages, on a single piece of furniture.

Like all our santons, he is made in our Aix-en-Provence workshop, founded in 1934: model sculpted by hand by the family, molding in regional clay, trimming, slow drying, firing at 960 °C and matte paint applied by hand. You can see him in our shop at 65 cours Gambetta. Each santon is individually wrapped in paper and then bubble wrap and ships within 2 to 3 business days.
