"Well Worth the Price"
I just received the”Street of Steps and am very happy I ordered it. The workmanship is outstanding and is very beautiful. It was worth the long wait I had to get it and put another panel in my wish box to order in the future. I m hoping the Montaivo family will make more, different panel. Thank you.

"Beautiful"
Ive wanted an image of Saint Michael for years. I love this one particularly as I prefer satan in the form of a serpent. A beautiful carving. Many thanks to this gifted family.
