This colorful box depicts the first Christmas. Alejandro Chávez crafts a traditional retablo (diorama) in the regional style of Ayacucho. The Holy Family and the three kings are modeled of clay and painted by hand. Beneath them, villagers harvest the red fruit of the prickly pear cactus.

Very bright colors and beautiful details! A great piece of true folk art. This is my second retablo from Alejandro Chavez, and this time it is a gift. I am sure my brother and his wife will love this unique piece of art. Thank you, Alejandro!

There is an amazing amount of detali in this little mirror. I recently painted and replaced the sink with a Mexican tile backsplash and this sweet little detail fits in perfectly.

Love, love, love this Mirror-retablo. Its one of my prized possession. Its so detailed, I have always been drawn to peruvian retablos and this artpeice fulfills being a mirror as well as a retablo. I just wish it was a tad-bit larger in size.
