House of Fontanini | Item #53141

Bring authentic pastoral beauty to your 27" Nativity display with the Sitting Sheep – Fontanini® 27" Collection. This beautifully sculpted figure captures the quiet presence of livestock in Bethlehem, representing the humility and faith of those who gathered to witness Christ’s birth.

Expertly crafted in marble-based resin, this seated sheep is richly detailed with deeply layered curls that give the wool remarkable texture and visual depth. Hand-painted in warm cream and soft tan tones, the finish highlights the natural contours of the fleece while preserving the classic, time-honored look that defines the Fontanini Italian Nativity tradition.

Perfectly scaled for 27" Nativity figures, this resting sheep makes a meaningful companion to shepherd groupings and adds authenticity and dimension to church or institutional displays.

The Fontanini Legacy

The Fontanini Nativity tradition began over 100 years ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first shop in 1908. What began as a small family workshop in the hills of Tuscany has grown into a world-renowned creator of heirloom-quality Nativity sets and figurines.

Each figure is meticulously sculpted, molded, and hand-painted through a multi-generational, family-guided process that continues today in Italy.

Here at House of Fontanini.com, we proudly carry on that tradition. For over 25 years, our locally owned Minnesota business has been honored to provide direct retail and e-commerce sales to customers who cherish the beauty and reverence of the Italian Nativity.

Our mission remains simple:
“Telling His Story, one piece at a time.”
