The miracle of Bethlehem travels to the peaceful landscapes of the faithful Ayacucho, in Peru. Artisans Guillermo and Eduardo recreate the scene of Jesus birth in this seven-piece nativity scene, infused with the region’s traditions and wise spirit. Each ceramic figurine—representing Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus among farm animals—is painted by hand, evoking the Andes’ ancient artistry.

A gentle llama offers shelter to the Holy Family in this cheerful nativity scene by Guillermo and Eduardo. Mary and Joseph are dressed in the traditional garments of southern Peru, while the llama wears colorful acrylic threads. A cow, a sheep and a donkey accompany the scene—each piece crafted from ceramic and painted by hand.
