Celebrate the sacred story of Christmas with this hand-carved Alabaster Nativity Scene Egg, a stunning artisan piece made in Peru. Available in two sizes — 1.5″ and 2.6″ tall — each egg-shaped sculpture houses a delicate relief of Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus, carved into the stone’s hollow niche.

Crafted from genuine Huamanga stone, a translucent form of alabaster native to Peru, these pieces glow softly in the light, enhancing their spiritual and decorative appeal. Each is a testament to skilled craftsmanship, ideal for collectors, religious displays, or as thoughtful seasonal gifts.

FAQs

Question Answer
Is this the exact piece I’ll receive? You’ll receive your selected size and carving as described. Each one is slightly different due to natural stone and hand-carving.
Can I place this outdoors? No — it is best displayed indoors, as alabaster is sensitive to moisture and temperature changes.
Does the stone glow or shine? Yes — the natural translucence of Huamanga alabaster gives it a gentle, glowing effect in light.
Are both sizes carved the same? Yes — both feature the Holy Family in relief, but the 2.6" version has more defined depth and presence.
