"Feliz Navidad" Pony is decorated with a wonderfully detailed scene of the nine day celebration that commemorates the journey of Mary and Joseph from Nazareth to Bethlehem.
The celebration begins on December 16th, and each night the journey unfolds.While Jose Feliciano sang a classic Christmas song "Feliz Navidad" or "Merry Christmas," in the U.S. Christmas is traditionally thought of as snow and cold. But the southern part of the U.S. and Latin America have no snow.
This pony embodies the traditional Latin America Christmas. You can see a man playing a guitar, two females dancing, joyful children playing with a pinata, and poinsettias on the body and covering the entire base. A wonderful red and green sombrero sits atop the pony's head. A striped red, green, yellow, black and white blanket drapes across the horse's neck. This festive pony captures the fun of these 9 days, ending with Christmas Eve. The artist is Janee Hughes, who also created "Stardust" Pony. Made of resin. Dimensions: 5.5"L x 6"H x 2.5"W
