By Peruvian artisan Alejandro Chavez, this wall mirror celebrates the traditional nativity. In the style of traditional retablos, Chavez diligently crafts a variety of different figurines from ceramic, painted by hand within a wood frame that surrounds a mirror in the center. The upper portion of the frame depict the nativity, while the left and right sections depict scenes with angels, a villager, and a chicken. The bottom section depicts a group of villagers traveling to view the newborn child.

This is the second retablo I ve purchased from Mr Chavez. Please take time to watch the video of him making every single piece of this by hand. From mixing the clay from powder for the figures to cutting the wood for the frame. It s an intense amount of work and it shows! Highly recommended. I removed the mirror and use it as a picture frame and it looks unique and amazing!

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.
