OUR COLLECTION — LATIN AMERICA — COLOMBIA 93. NESTOR PALACIO'S NATIVITY
This Nativity was hand-carved by Colombian craftsman Nestor Palacio, who is renowned as a carver of religious figures. Each piece of religious art produced by this world famous woodcarver’s shop is a uniquely original work of art. The seller had held this Nativity set unopened for over twenty years when I bought it in 2005. The set includes eight pieces: Joseph, Mary, baby Jesus, the three wise men, and two animals. The pieces measure 5 inches tall.
