A little Italian hill village, handmade for Christmas. Borghetto della Fontana is a compact Neapolitan presepe that packs a whole hillside into a tabletop piece. A small tower house and cottage sit at the top, stone and wooden stairways wind between the terraces, and at the foot of the hill the Holy Family rests in a lit stone grotto beside a little village fountain.
Every detail is shaped by hand from natural cork, wood, moss and paper. Switch it on and tiny lights glow across the hillside while water pours from the fountain spout into its lattice-carved basin, powered by the included electric pump — big charm in a size that suits a shelf, side table or mantel.
A rare collector's piece. Handmade Italian presepi are seldom seen in Australia, and only 5 are available — a treasured piece to bring out every Christmas.
