Bolivia - Nativities From Around the World, Approx 3'' tall

Fair Trade - From the Aymara people, an indigenous nation in South America, this colorful ceramic Andean nativity features the Holy Family clothed in a traditional Aguayo (multicolored woven blanket) with nativity animals. Figures stand approx. 3" inches high.

The bright colors represent the current Aymara culture. Hand crafted in Bolivia.

Traditional red pottery inspired by the ancient Bolivian Aymara culture. Each piece is made with great detail glazed or painted entirely by hand with a simple brush. Artisans: Aymara ceramic artisans in Bolivia have inherited and adapted the ancestral techniques and designs to share with the world through fair trade for a better quality of life. These artisans have a decent job that allows them to value their culture and teach it to their children. This Nativity set was acquired through a Fair Trade organization. Fair trade pays impoverished artisans a fair price for their work and puts people first, not profits.
