A visit to the local consignment shop I spotted a large wreath. Passing it by the second time I realized that the figures embossed among the holly leaves were characters from the nativity story:
At the top is the Family with a cross-like Star. On either side are Angels.
On the left are Three Wise Men and a Camel and below another Angel.
On the right side of the wreath is a shepherd with flock and below another angel.
A red ribbon is twined around and at the base it forms is a red bow above golden bells

Hi Carrie,
ReplyDeleteThe nativity you inquired about with the Egyptian setting is actually a plate. It was a gift that I treasure and leave up all year. It was from a mission agency so I don't know its origination. You have lovely collections and I hope to come back and enjoy them soon.

What a wonderful treasure. I've never seen anything like that.
