This is a great little one-piece Nativity. It is from the Philippines and is made like a stained glass out of capiz shell. Capiz is a type of shell from an oyster. Capiz shells come from the province of Capiz and the island of Samal in the Philippines. The shells are often called windowpane oysters, because they have been harvested for thousands of years for use as windowpanes.
Donated to the Mesa Temple Visitors' Center Collection.
