“Sculpture of St Joseph”

This sculpture is one of three I purchased from Juan & Carolina. The ever humble St Joseph is simply carved and is painted with cheerful flowers. I also purchased the carved Jesus and the carved Corona Mary pieces. These pieces will be forever cherished.

“Sculpture of Mother Mary”

This sculpture is one of three I purchased from Juan & Carolina. It is beautifully carved and is painted with cheerful flowers that bring the same joy our Mother Mary does. I also purchased the carved Jesus and carved Joseph pieces.
