This compact nativity set is an authentic example of mid-century folk craftsmanship — carved from olive wood that develops a warm patina with age. The simplified forms and tactile finish make the figures versatile for minimalist, rustic, or mid-century modern interiors. Their small scale is especially suited to apartments, office desks, or as a thoughtful gift for collectors of religious folk art.

Each piece carries the unique grain and coloring of olive wood, offering visual warmth and a handcrafted character that mass-produced decorations can’t replicate. Use the set as a seasonal focal point on a mantel, as part of a curated shelf display, or a subtle year-round accent in a serene vignette.
