Sweet depiction
I particularly enjoy the way Guillermo and Eduardo portray the nativity figures in the dress of different regions of their country. The characters also wear sweet, beatific expressions that are quite endearing. I actually bought two of this set, and I look forward to using the second as a Christmas gift.

A beautiful and expressive piece
This is a truly wonderful, handmade work of art. The carving is smoothly and expertly done; the wood grain is beautifully showcased. Although this piece has an exquisite simplicity to it, the love between Mary and Joseph and their love for the Holy Child is evident, as Mary and Baby Jesus are cradled in Joseph’s arms. It is one of those pieces where the artist hasn’t had to create something complicated or overly intricate in order to convey so much. Fernando Castro has “spoken” in a whisper - yet, when you hold this special and artful piece in your hands, his message of love, heartfelt compassion, and respect can be heard as powerfully and clearly as if he had shouted it from a mountain top.
