A wooden assemblage creche altar with two doors that have a floral design. The doors open to reveal a nativity scene inside. The figurines are painted in warm tones and appear to be glued to the base of creche. The background is of a night sky with a gold star shining on Jesus. The inside of the doors mimic the floral design on the outside. The sides of the creche there are red and yellow squarish dots. On the bottom there's a stamp that reads, "Hand made in Peru".
