NATIVITIES FOR SALE — AFRICA — MALAWI VILLAGE NATIVITY (FULL SET)

Picture
This Nativity is hand-carved from a hard wood called Afromosia, which has a very beautiful grain. The wood color varies naturally from medium to dark brown. The scene contains 18 figures in total. The Holy Family is protected under a hut, flanked by a tall tree. The Family is joined by eight African animals: a giraffe, an elephant, an African buffalo, a lion, a leopard, a zebra, a rhino, and a hippo. The scene also includes a shepherd, an angel, and three wise men. Joseph stands 5.75 inches tall. The carved tree stands 9.5 inches tall.

We also sell this Nativity divided into two smaller groupings: Group 1 has 11 figures while Group 2 has 7 figures. 
​
The scene is carved by Van Nyasulu from Nkhata Bay, Malawi. Van’s father is Symon Nyasulu, a renowned carver who started carving in the early 1970s. Symon started teaching his son to carve from the age of 6 until 14 when Symon passed away. After Symon’s death, Van developed a great desire to learn more about wood carving on his own, making this his full-time work ever since.
