Antique Carved Wood Mexican NichoThis antique carved wooden nicho (niche) came to me from the estate of a local art professor who sold antiques on the side and specialized in pieces from Mexico and South America. This is perfect for a home altar, especially if youre short on space: It has just enough room for about a 6 statue. Shown here with a saint figure from my collection (not for sale, sorry) and flowers from my garden. Refer to photos for size and condition: Very good with
