A most beautiful version of the Three Wise Men. The Marquis lead crystal Nativity Wise Men, 2nd In A Series. Made in Germany. In the conventional version of the Christmas story, the names of the magi were Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar. They are also known as Apellus, Amerus and Damasius. It is believed that these men were kings or Persian priests and astrologers. They started the gift-giving custom of Christmas on Epiphany, the day the Baby Jesus was presented, by bringing gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Each of the three pieces is signed/etched MARQUIS on the bottom. The two standing are 6" tall and the kneeling man is 5" tall. Perfect condition, although not in their original box. A marvelous Christmas to give or receive for yourself! Contact me to verify shipping cost.
