I bought this not knowing the history of Our Lady of the Snows. Isn't she beautiful? Made in Japan - possibly by Sanmyro – one of the collectible 50s or 60s ceramic companies she's is perfect shape. I wouldn't have cared if she hadn't been, though.
I know she's from Bellville, IL not far from St. Louis but I don't know the history of Our Lady of the Snows retreat house or why it was named that.
I'm just so happy to have this serene statue in my home.
I'm joining Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday.
Oh how beautiful is she! Your a lucky lady to have her.
