"Donated to my local Church"

I purchased this to give to my local church being named after St Michael the archangel. The cedar wood smelled wonderful. The priest was very taken by the carving and had it hung in the sacristy at the entrance to the sanctuary.

"Cherished Family Heirloom"

Absolutely beautiful carved Nativity Scene! This piece of art will certainly remain a treasure and stay in the family forever! This carving is so beautiful that my wife decided it will remain on our wall all year long and not come out for just the Christmas Season! A work of art!!!

"Absolutely beautiful carving!"

I have several pieces by the Montalvo Family. Each was made with great skill and spirituality. The carvers have been blest with much talent. I am so honored to have their work in my home.May God continue to bless this family for sharing their gifts. Please support these artists.
