Hi, just received the St. Joseph the Carpenter panel by the Montalvos, and I am very impressed, both by the quality and craftsmanship of the item itself, and by the care taken in packaging and shipping the item. The shipping was much more rapid than I anticipated. The carving itself is beautifully detailed, and the coloring is used very subtly, not garish, but just enough color to liven the sculpture. - thanks very much - this was my first purchase from Novica, and the Montalvos, but I know that it won't be my last. I would be happy to recommend their work to anyone.
