A substantial hand-painted wood nicho — a traditional Mexican devotional shrine box, a folk craft form dating back to the 18th century — with a stepped, arched roofline in gold, red, and navy, hinged doors painted with sun and moon motifs. Opens to a red-lined interior housing a hand-painted nativity scene with angel and Mary figures. A genuinely striking, large-scale example of the form. Ready to mount on wall.
Size: Approx. 12" W x 16" H
Note: Angel has been repaired including wing which had been damaged and repaired with cardboard. Please carefully inspect all photos before purchasing. Vintage and antique items are sold as-is and may show signs of age or wear. All sales are final.
