Rustic Kisii Stone Nativity - Handmade & Fair Trade

Celebrate the season with this beautiful hand-carved nativity set.

Originating from the Tabaka Hills of Kenya, this artistic piece features Joseph and Mary cradling baby Jesus. This unpolished stone sculpture seeks to capture the raw beauty and authenticity of natural materials. By leaving the stone in its rough, unfinished state, the imperfections and unique textures inherent to each piece are on display. The natural contours and subtle variations in the stone become integral to the work, emphasizing the connection between the earth and the artistic process. Each mark left by hand is a testament to the patient and meditative journey of sculpting, where the stone guides the artist as much as the artist shapes the stone.
