These figures are carved from soapstone and hand painted in bright colours. Most of the worlds soapstone originates from Kisii in the western highlands of Kenya and so is home to the best soapstone artisans and carvers. Before starting work the stone must be immersed in water to make it softer and therefore easier to work with. Using a hammer and chisel the main shape is carved out and colour then added. A smaller knife, known as a kisu, is then used for the engraved design or illustration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColour - Black and Purple. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: Height 11cm \/ Width at Base 4cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease Note: All sizes are approximate and may vary slightly\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Siesta Crafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49088887062826,"sku":"SC-KE226-Black and Purple","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/4424\/1742\/files\/holy-family-nativity-scene-fairtrade-handcarved-soapstone-black.jpg?v=1723624682","url":"https:\/\/www.pilgrimgifts.co.uk\/ta\/products\/holy-family-nativity-figures-handcarved-soapstone-11cm-4-25-inches-high","provider":"Pilgrim Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
