Details

Peruvian artisan Eleodora Salvatierra handcrafts a lovely, intricate nativity scene out of a blend of cotton and acrylic fabric in this arpillera tree skirt. In the scene, the artisan combines Andean village life--a small village next to a stream, grazing livestock, and workers tending the animals and harvesting crops--with the nativity story of wise men on camels crossing an Andean valley to meet the baby Jesus. Mary and Joseph kneel by the baby and a shooting star graces the night sky overhead. Hand-embroidered details and a multitude of colors and textures bring this scene to life and the tree skirt is bordered with red, hand-crocheted trim finished with two red pompoms.
