It takes a special kind of person to want this piece. It’s a tiny nativity scene, featuring Joseph, Mary, and the Baby Jesus. There’s a lot of narsty glazes, and the whole thing is rather upsetting on several different levels. It’s quite small, so you can put it on your desk, in the fridge, or on the dash of your car. It’s weird and portable.

Over time, this piece may show signs of handling or wear. This is normal and should be celebrated. This is the “sabi” in the wabi-sabi. Embrace it.

This piece is presumed to be food safe on the inside, but is absolutely NOT dishwasher safe or microwave safe. Ultimately, these are fine pieces of art, and extra care should be taken with their use and handling. Be kind to them so they will last a long time and your kids can fight over them when you die.
