"Cui Welcomes Christmas"
This is a totally adorable piece - makes everyone smile and of course, if you have been in Peru...the guinea pig has to be part of ones travel experience. It cannot help but bring a smile. The technical execution of the piece is superb but has the essence of the handmade crafts of the area.

"Beautiful"
Thanks for this adorable Nativity set that represents the Mapuche people of Chile. My son is serving a mission in Chile, teaching people about Jesus Christ. This will be a perfect keepsake to remember his time in Chile, and the birth of Jesus Christ

"Not just for Christmas!"
When I saw this item, the word LOVE immediately came to mind. Beatific faces, embracing arms around the Word made Flesh. It is a perfect size to keep displayed on a shelf year round; and why not? I bought one as a gift and one for myself. Wrapped very nicely as well as securely.

"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.
