This colorful box depicts the first Christmas. Alejandro Chávez crafts a traditional retablo (diorama) in the regional style of Ayacucho. The Holy Family and the three kings are modeled of clay and painted by hand. Beneath them, villagers harvest the red fruit of the prickly pear cactus.

Very bright colors and beautiful details! A great piece of true folk art. This is my second retablo from Alejandro Chavez, and this time it is a gift. I am sure my brother and his wife will love this unique piece of art. Thank you, Alejandro!

I came across Alejandros work on the Novica website and thought it would make an excellent gift for a family member. Alejandros attention to detail and craftsmanship are evident in the beautiful frame. It is a work of art in itself! Thank you Alejandro.

Die interessante Kombination der Krippendarstellung mit einem Spiegel ist eine wirklich außergewöhnliche Idee. So wird jeder Betrachter zum Teil der Krippe.
