Hand-carved Olive Wood Hut Nativity Set from Kenya

Offer your customers a unique holiday product that combines faith, culture, and artisan craftsmanship with this single-piece olive wood nativity carving from the Kamba Tribe of Machakos, Kenya.

Each piece is hand-carved from a solid block of sustainably sourced olive wood (Olea europaea), depicting the nativity scene within a traditional African hut. The detailed work showcases the artisan skill of the Kamba carvers, who use generations-old tools and techniques to create each carving.

This product is not only visually distinctive but also ethically sourced—artisans are paid fair wages that directly support their families, community, and orphan care initiatives. The group also participates in reforestation programs, planting trees during Kenya’s rainy season to ensure long-term sustainability.
