Love them so much! they are small and grand at the same time. I am so glad I bought them. They will be loved and cherished for a lifetime! This artist is very skillful and I look forward to more purchases from him.
For past two years have hosted a "Nativity Open House" with depictions from many countries/cultures. I especially like the cultural reference of the hat shop below. Just as many of us learn the story of room made for the Holy Family in the animal's shelter, this shows room made for the birth and adoration of Jesus where a family makes their livelihood.
I love this style, and when I can find one in black, I will generally get it… that said, this is beautiful work, shipped quickly, and very well protected!
