Questions About Antique Nativity Sets
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    There is no set number of pieces that a nativity set should have. Some sets feature just three figures representing Mary, Joseph and Jesus in the manger. Others include shepherds, magi, angels and animals like donkeys, sheep, cows and camels. Shop a collection of antique and vintage nativity sets on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To identify an antique tea set, look for hallmarks on the bottoms of the pieces. Handwritten markings indicate a set produced prior to the 19th century.
