Although this set is not signed with the name of the artisan, I am positive it was made by Josephine Arquero.  I have had such sets in the past and they were very similar to this one.  The braided rope is exactly like that on a previous set we had at the gallery.

This Cochiti Pueblo set has all the attributes of what one would consider folk art.  Joseph is pictured taller than the donkey but Mary is very much diminutive in scale compared with Joseph.  That is the charm of the set.
