OUR COLLECTION — LATIN AMERICA — HONDURAS  408. LOOFAH NATIVITY

Picture
This Nativity is made from the tropical loofah vine by Leti in Trujillo, Honduras. In this scene, the Holy Family is joined by four angels. Leti and her family grow loofah plants on their fence posts around their home. The plants look like green cucumbers on the vine. The Hondurans call them pastes (paws- tays) and only use them for making dish scrubbers. In America, loofahs are sold by the thousands in bath and beauty stores for scrubbing skin. The Joseph and Mary figures measure 7.5 inches tall.
​
So refreshing to know that Baby Jesus can gladden my heart AND exfoliate my skin.
