"Stunning nativity."
Im a collector and have other pieces from Dionisio. This one I had to wait and be informed that it was available again. Last year I took one or two days to decide, and it was gone immediately. This is why when I was notified it was again available I did not hesitated and bought it. It is impressive. The amount of work, creativity and art in this nativity only speaks of Dionisios passion to create what is beautiful and artistic. thank You!!!! I will surely keep on buying from this artist again.

"WORTH THE WAIT"
I had seen this piece a few years ago, but for reasons lost to history, I did not buy it. Earlier this year I chalked it up to the one that got away, and purchased another sculpture by Rojas. When this did become available, I hesitate, but my husband also was charmed and encouraged me to buy it. I am so glad. Everyone who has seen it has said. Oh. that is beautiful! It is, and besides the execution, the individualization of the figures draws the viewer in. This is a great nativity/

I am so happy with this beautiful Nativity candle holder from one of my favorite Novica artists, Dionisio Rojas! It arrived in perfect condition, and is even prettier than the picture.

"Lovely recreation of The Last Supper"
I love Peruvian ceramic work. Generally I prefer the limited palette of earth tones central to Peruvian ceramics but Dionisio Rojas has used beautiful and sophisticated colors to enhance this piece.
