About This Item

Description of Item

Cross made of dried corn husks made by the people of Tzintzuntzan in Michoacan in central/western Mexico.  The Tzintzuntzan people create crowns, bells, and nativity scenes and other Christmas ornaments from the remnants of corn husks that are packed for sale to make Tamales.  The artisans are humble people who make use of all their resources to make ends meet and nothing goes towaste."The entire material universe speaks of God's love, His boundless affection for us. Soil, water, mountains:everything is, as it were, a caress of God." Pope Francis, Laudato Si!
