This carving represents a warm and symbolically rich scene between Joseph and Young Jesus in the carpentry workshop.

This piece portrays Jesus as a child working as a carpenter under the gaze of Joseph. 

Though this scene is not depicted in the Bible literally, the hammer and wood in this piece represent the cross and nails of Jesus’ future crucifixion. Even as a child, Jesus is aware of His sacrificial mission. By holding the tools, the statue symbolizes Jesus’ willingness to embrace suffering for humanity’s salvation, highlighting His divine obedience.

For believers, this piece serves as a reminder of the sacrifice and redemption of Christ, and the quiet, contemplative role of Joseph watching over Him.This piece emphasizes Joseph's guidance, care, and moral support, a witness to the child’s divine destiny.

The outline of a stone wall etched in the warm tones of olive wood in the background make this piece incredibly charming.

This carving is a reminder of the warmth of familial love, and makes an excellent Christmas gift or nativity decór.
