figurine decor

Expertly carving cedar wood, Javier Ramírez depicts the first Christmas in a classic composition. Mary, Joseph and the animals gaze at little Jesus as he sleeps on a soft bad of hay. Ramírez adds subtle color by hand and applies bronze leaf to the halos. "This is an image filled with love and peace," he says.

A hook at the back facilitates wall display.

Francis Agbete honors the birth of Christ through his incomparable sculpture art. Working with teak wood, the Ghanaian artisan sculpts a 14-piece nativity scene that includes Mary and Joseph kneeling next to an angel, followed by a camel and a shepherd standing up. A donkey lies down in front of the hut, and on the other side are the three Wise Kings with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Three sheep guard the manger where the Baby Jesus peacefully sleeps.
