Description

Hand-Carved Wood Creche with 5-Piece Hand-Painted Resin Nativity

This five-piece nativity set includes a creche hand carved from a single solid piece of wood, displaying rich swirling grain and natural burl-like patterns. The carving forms a warm, sheltering grotto that beautifully frames the Holy Family. The accompanying figures—Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus—are cast in resin and hand painted with soft, traditional colors. Their detailing and scale complement the carved wood setting, creating a ready-to-display scene ideal for holiday décor or year-round devotional display.

Artisan-carved wood creches of this style are commonly associated with Holy Land craftsmanship, where natural wood forms and organic contours are incorporated into each piece. This example offers an inviting, traditional presentation with both handcrafted and hand-painted elements.

CONDITION

Excellent condition with no damage noted. The wood exhibits natural fissures and variations inherent to solid carving, and the resin figures show clean paint with no chips, cracks, or losses. Please review photos for full detail.
