Toy Village

Seiffen is the heart of christmas country, Erzgebirge (Ore Mountains), situated in Germany's southeast. From time immemorial, people here have been carving the most delicate toys, decorative figurines and most of all christmas ornaments during the winter.

The little nativity scene I'm showing you here fits into a matchbox and was part of an advent exhibition I saw today.
