It has the quiet weight of a collected object rather than a seasonal trinket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: 'Jost', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; color: #3a322b; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0 0 1.2em;\"\u003eThis is a single piece. It was painted once, by one hand, and there is no second one. At From The Andes nothing is made twice, and this crèche is exactly that: a finite object, not a production run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: 'Jost', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; color: #3a322b; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0 0 1.2em;\"\u003eAt roughly 2.5 inches in each direction and an inch deep, it is small enough for a tree branch and dimensional enough to hold its own on a wall, a cabinet pull, or a shelf. A loop is built into the top, so it reads equally as a tree ornament and a devotional wall piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: 'Jost', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; color: #3a322b; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0 0 1.2em;\"\u003eThe color is bright and worked entirely by hand: a green base, a brown arched roof, a grey stable wall, a red upper panel, yellow halos, and fine black detail across the faces and architecture. The raised figures give it real depth, and the glossy finish catches light the way a flat printed ornament never will.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: 'Jost', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; color: #3a322b; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0 0 1.2em;\"\u003eThe small irregularities in the paint are the record of a single maker working the surface by hand. Slight unevenness, a stray mark, a finish that varies across the relief. These are not flaws to be corrected. They are the reason the piece looks made rather than manufactured, and they are shown honestly in the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond', Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; font-weight: 600; color: #2c2420; margin: 1.8em 0 0.5em;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"font-family: 'Jost', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; color: #3a322b; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0 0 1.2em; padding-left: 1.2em;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #2c2420;\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peru\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #2c2420;\"\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Miniature nativity ornament and crèche wall hanging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #2c2420;\"\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nativity scene with the Holy Family, animals, and attendant figures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #2c2420;\"\u003eApproximate dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5\" tall x 2.5\" wide x 1\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #2c2420;\"\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glossy multicolor, hand painted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #2c2420;\"\u003eHanging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Loop built into the top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #2c2420;\"\u003eAvailability:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of one, non-repeatable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond', Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.5em; font-weight: 600; color: #2c2420; margin: 1.8em 0 0.5em;\"\u003eDisplay and Styling\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: 'Jost', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; color: #3a322b; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0 0 1.2em;\"\u003eHang it on the tree, set it on a wall hook, work it into a garland, or let it stand alone as a small nativity in a holiday vignette.
