Winter Cardinal Luminary

A cardinal is a beautiful sight in the winter. They tend to flock together to stay warm and to protect their food source, which is usually a bird feeder. This Winter Cardinal Luminary is handcrafted in a family workshop in the community of San Juan de Oriente, Nicaragua. Each ceramic luminary is created from local clay, turned on a kick wheel, and hand-painted. The artisan uses a sharpened bicycle spoke to carve and etch the design into the clay. Finally, it is fired in a wood-burning kiln. For use with tea light candles, fairy lights, or electric lights. Approximate size: 4" wide x 5" high. Fair Trade.
