Joseph. Next are the three wise men, the good shepherd and a donkey & cow. This set is
based on the traditional dress of the Lake Titicaca area. The Indian Nativity comprises 5
minis, the obvious three plus two South American cats, an Otorongo and a Jaguar
(somehow I doubt that the Christian religion would have existed if these two had been
there!). The sixth piece shown was a sample only (5 made) and depicts a guinea pig. This
set is based on the traditional dress of the Shipibo Indians.

There are also plenty of new straights coming out of Peru. The two sets of beautifully etched
and gold printed bottles above both contain 50ml Pisco. The first is from Abolengo (part of
Sotelo) and the second is from Fundo Real.

Most of the above, and many more, are available from Fernando Saettone at
http://miniaturasdelperu.com/main.html There was only one set of the Indian Nativity available
as I write this and none of the Andean Nativity but it would be worth asking Fernando if he
can get a set for you if you want one
