The Holy Family and the three kings are modeled of clay and painted by hand. Beneath them, folk singers and dancers celebrate the nativity.

"Looks Great in my updated bathroom"
There is an amazing amount of detali in this little mirror. I recently painted and replaced the sink with a Mexican tile backsplash and this sweet little detail fits in perfectly.
