"A beautiful piece"
I ordered this piece to brighten up my home office. I just love it. The green is beautiful and calming, and the birds and flowers add some lovely colour. Shipping was also incredibly quick. It sits with pride on my bookcase.

"Ceramic nativity scene Andean Birth (set of 8)"
The item is perfect very similar to one I saw in Ecuador. The delivery was much sooner them I had anticipated. Great product wish the gentleman could make some more figures to go along with the set.
