Description

African nativity scene is handmade in Kenya from beautiful kisii soapstone. The holy family stands about 6 inches tall. 

Hand-carved and hand-painted from lustrous kisii, a soapstone native to Kenya, is first carved into the shape of the nativity figures. The nativity figures are then dyed with ink or paint and finished with a coating of beeswax. The final step is the detailed etching or carving on the surface of the pieces.

As this nativity is made by hand, some slight variation should be expected. Fair trade imported. Fair trade pays artisans a living wage for their work and puts people first, not profits.
