{"product_id":"pistachie","title":"Pistachio","description":"\u003ch3\u003e The history of Pistachio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eIf you don't live in Provence, it is unlikely that you have heard of Pistachio. Anchored in Provençal tradition, this very particular santon represents a farm servant. If he is particularly different from the other characters in the nursery, it is not particularly for his appearance but more for his character. Indeed, unlike the shepherds, the Three Wise Men and the characters of the Nativity, the Pistachio Tree is very far from leading a holy life. Some agree that he was a womanizer, others a coward or a drunkard. As you have understood, the latter is very far from corresponding to the idea that we can have of the characters present around the child Jesus at his birth. Yet it is there and it holds an important place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eAlthough he is also described as a little naive, Pistachio remains nonetheless generous and brings a basket filled with various foods to the nursery. We cite in particular cod, sausages, fouguasses or even oil pump (traditional dessert of Provence based on oil and orange blossom).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Married to a fishwife, Pistachio has a passion for hunting but has little talent for this activity. Also, he comes back empty-handed most of the time due to his clumsiness. However, for the birth of Jesus, a miracle occurs and he manages to chase a hare on his way to the manger. He then decides to bring it as an offering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e The representation of Pistachio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Over the years and depending on trends, its representation may vary. We see him most of the time carrying a lantern and a seal and wearing an outfit that is most often neglected with a shirt and pants held on by a single strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eMade in France in Aubagne by hand\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eComposition: Clay\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003esize 7cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maitre Santonniers DI LANDRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40619990483103,"sku":"","price":26.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/3595\/6639\/products\/pistachier.jpg?v=1626986811","url":"https:\/\/aixens.ca\/en\/products\/pistachie","provider":"- AIXENS -","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
