This Dolfi Artisan Nativity Scene embodies the perfect union between rustic mountain authenticity and a minimalist sacred design of great impact. The work is carved from a longitudinal section of a tree trunk, maintaining the evocative outer bark that enhances its organic and wild character.
On the smooth and polished inner surface, the artisans of Val Gardena have carved a minimalist Nativity scene in low relief. The stylized figures of Mary, Joseph, and the Baby Jesus, lying in the manger, are enclosed in a stable surmounted by a guiding star. The entire composition is flanked by stylized trees that evoke the natural environment and the winter season.
Crafted to a size of 12 cm, this nativity scene is hand-carved from Maple Wood, chosen for its fine grain and excellent performance in precision carving. The natural wood finish, without added varnishes or colors, allows the warm tones of the wood to express all their beauty, transforming a piece of nature into an eternal symbol of faith.
