Jose Canil Ramos combines Guatemala's Day of the Dead customs with Christian traditions for the design of this extraordinary nativity scene. "I thought it would be fun to make it with innocent skeletons," explains Canil. He carves each pinewood figurine by hand, allowing each piece to bake to achieve an aged, rustic appearance. This nativity scene includes the Holy Family, the Three Kings, and angel, and mule and an ox, for a total of nine pieces.
Joseph's hand and staff, as well as the angel's wings are removed for shipping.

I'm so impressed with the quality of work on my skeletal nativity set! Excellent work with vibrant colors. You can tell the artist put a lot of work and dedication to his craft!

I found the concept of a skeleton nativity rather bizarre at first. A couple of conversations concerning “thin places,” where life and death, present reality and the spiritual life intersect, brought me to a different understanding. The pieces are beautifully painted.

Looks bright and colorful - great on Mexican wood and tile table. Just what I wanted, as Im a fan of (sugar) skulls/Day of the Dead. Its on the small side, but certainly adequate. I enjoy this item and am pleased with the item and purchase experience.

My kitchen has a lemon and chicken theme. This mask is well made and I love the cheerful artistry. The kids know to rub the beak for good luck!
