Ceramic nativity scene, 'Andean Christmas Scene' (6 pieces)
By Sheila
Sweet depiction
I particularly enjoy the way Guillermo and Eduardo portray the nativity figures in the dress of different regions of their country. The characters also wear sweet, beatific expressions that are quite endearing. I actually bought two of this set, and I look forward to using the second as a Christmas gift.

Wood retablo, 'Blue Nativity'
By Sandra
Love the colors of the Retablo
The Nativity Retablo is a perfect size for where I want to use it. I love the blue colors of the night sky and the stars. The figures are really colorful, too. I really like it. The only problem with the "Blue Nativity" I bought--he didn't allow the colors to dry all the way, so the door stuck and some of the paint pulled away from the wood in about 5 small spots on the door and the front of the shelves. I am going to try to find some paint to match and touch up those spots, because I love the Retablo and don't want to return it. I received it more quickly than was promised, but wish that he had waited one more day to send it, to make sure the paint was dry.
