New masterpieces of wood carving – Our new products this spring
The world of Val Gardena woodcarving thrives on tradition, craftsmanship—and constant creative development. In our online shop, we regularly present carefully selected new products that will delight collectors and enrich spiritual seekers. From detailed figurines of saints to artfully carved nativity sets—discover the latest highlights in our range.
Saint Gertrude – Patroness of Travelers and Pilgrims
One of our most recent additions is the lovingly crafted figure of Saint Gertrude . She is considered the patron saint of pilgrims, hikers, and travelers—a powerful symbol of hope, prayer, and guidance on life's journey. The figure impresses with its fine carvings, symbolic attributes, and serene, reverent aura. Ideal for believers embarking on their inner or outer journey.

Saint Patrick – Ireland’s Messenger of Faith
Also new to our range is Saint Patrick – a figure highly venerated not only in Ireland. He brought the Christian faith to the Emerald Isle and is considered a powerful witness to the faith. In our wood carving, the saint has been depicted with a crosier, shamrock, and miter – a true eye-catcher for any collection of religious art and an expression of lived spirituality.

New nativity sets – masterfully carved for the next Christmas
Nativity scene enthusiasts can also look forward to two new nativity sets expanding our range – both made in typical Kostner quality , with attention to detail and traditional craftsmanship:
-
The Kostner nativity set (5 pieces) in the "Gröden" stable is ideal as an introduction or as a decorative highlight for smaller spaces. Featuring the Holy Family, stable, and animals, it conveys the essence of the Christmas story in a compact format.
-
Those looking for something a little more comprehensive will find what they're looking for in the Kostner Nativity Set (12 pieces) in the "Villach" stable . In addition to the Holy Family, it also includes the Three Wise Men, a shepherd, and several animals. The variety and expressiveness of the figures make this nativity a true gem for your home.
Accessories for your nativity scene – detailed and lovingly designed
To add a personal touch to your nativity scene, we now also offer matching accessory sets. These are ideal for expanding the scene and creating an atmospheric overall picture:
-
The small nativity scene accessory set contains essential additional parts such as a water jug, trough, and fireplace – ideal for smaller nativity scenes.
-
The larger nativity accessory set offers even more lovingly designed details such as tools, supplies, and containers to authentically expand and bring your nativity scene to life.

The Passion Crib – Art for Holy Week
Especially fitting for Lent and Easter, we would like to once again highlight our Passion Nativity scene – a collection of artfully carved scenes depicting the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. These figures are not just decorations, but living testimonies of faith that transform the home into a place of worship.
