Originating from the Tabaka Hills of Kenya, this captivating piece features Mary and Joseph cradling baby Jesus in an elegant sculpture. Each element of this nativity scene is meticulously carved and set upon a gracefully curved plaque, showcasing the intricate artistry and deep cultural heritage of the Kisii region.

The stone undergoes several stages of sanding and waxing, resulting in a smooth, satiny finish that highlights the detailed craftsmanship. This nativity scene is not only a stunning addition to any collection but also a meaningful gift, ideal for collectors, newlyweds, or anyone who appreciates finely crafted, ethical art. Great gift for the nativity collector or wedding gift.
