"Well made and detailed"





The nativity was very well made and detailed. The expressions on all of the faces of the Holy Family and the cute jungle animals are perfect. You can tell very quickly that the baby is a boy. I thought of putting a little blanket over him to keep him warm when I display the Nativity. I am pleased with the Nativity and am happy that I purchased it.

"Shelter"





This came exactly as depicted in the picture. It is cute and is a regional twist on the many biblical passages about God sheltering beneath his wings.

"A Cherished Reminder of Our Love"





I am fascinated by the folk-art simplicity of the figures in this set. They perfectly capture the spirit of love and peace that the Nativity represents. I bought it as a Christmas gift for my wife two years ago. She adored it; and now that she has died, I treasure it as a reminder of her and our 40 years of shared love.

"Beautiful"





I had to have it because it reminds me of my great grandchildren. The girls on the donkey( we have mules) and the boy not riding. It is exactly the way it is Andrew is scared of ieverything and the girls, not at all. Lol.
