I got Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus from my parents for my birthday earlier this year. These pieces are hand carved, from Germany. Each piece is carved when ordered, then shipped immediately. They are carved from white maple.
These are the three kings that were added to my Nativity set for Christmas. It is hard to truly appreciate them in a picture! You can also get them painted, but I love the simple "naked" look!
Want your own original E.Kostner nativity? Check out http://www.weihnachtskrippen-online.de/ There are a ton of pieces...I'll never own them all myself.
