Antique El Salvador Bethlehem

An antique finish add beautiful to this charming ceramic nativity scene. Crafted and painted by hand, it is the work of skilled members of the House of El Salvador Artisans. 'The nativity scenes in our own homes each year speak of the great mystery of hope,' they confide. 'God chose to be born in an unimportant town called Bethlehem. There, in a humble stable, Mary — the mother of hope — gave birth to the Redeemer.' The eleven petite pieces include the Mary, Joseph and little Jesus, a shepherd and his lamb, the Three Kings, an angel, a burro and cow.
