DAY of the Dead | Kraków Foil Nativity Crib

HK$350.00

This sparkling delight is a Kraków 'szopka', or Nativity 'crib'.

Traditionally made in Kraków, Poland, where these little scenes are a popular Christmas decoration in the city. So popular, in fact, that they have been holding a szopka making competition in the main market square on the first Thursday in December since 1918.

The ornate structures can be up to two metres high, taking inspiration from St. Mary's Basilica and its iconic spires. A decent upgrade from the old stable and manger, no?

We can't get enough of this authentic Kraków szopka. Handmade and agleam with sequins and colourful foil. Peep inside to find an equally opulent holy family and the full lineup of visitors.

WHAT IS RETABLOS?

Retablos are wooden boxes filled with brightly colored figures arranged into intricate narrative scenes important to the indigenous people of the highlands of Peru.

The term retablo is derived from the Latin retro tabula, which means behind the (altar) table, where devotional images were typically placed. Peruvian retablos evolved from religious and devotional images to also include scenes from daily life such as markets, shops, harvests, weddings, social political and other events.
