Animated Date Harvester with 80 cm Palm Tree - 30 cm

This animated 30 cm resin scene depicts a date harvester carrying out the traditional harvest of ripe dates from a majestic palm tree. The model was created by local artist Michela Nibaldi exclusively for LCR Presepi by Messi Leandro, while the movement has been personally created by Messi Leandro. Using a long pole raised towards the crown of the palm, the harvester strikes the ripe clusters, causing the dates to fall into the net stretched beneath the tree, faithfully recreating a traditional harvesting technique typical of the Middle East. Standing 80 cm tall, the richly detailed palm tree is adorned with lush fronds and abundant clusters of dates, giving the composition exceptional height and visual impact, making it an impressive centrepiece for larger Nativity displays. The coordinated animation brings the scene to life as the harvester's arms and head move rhythmically up and down, realistically reproducing the continuous harvesting motion. Perfect for Middle Eastern-style Nativity displays, this handcrafted composition combines realistic movement with meticulous attention to detail, celebrating one of the region's most iconic rural traditions.

Note: This is a handcrafted item. Minor variations in color and details may occur, making each piece unique.
