Artisan Crafted Cedar Wood Nativity Scene Relief Sculpture, "In a Stable in Bethlehem"
Expertly carving cedar wood, Javier Ramírez depicts the first Christmas in a classic composition. Mary, Joseph and the animals gaze at little Jesus as he sleeps on a soft bad of hay. Ramírez adds subtle color by hand and applies bronze leaf to the halos. "This is an image filled with love and peace," he says.
A hook at the back facilitates wall display.

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.
