Bethany, Wine Vineyard Worker - Fontanini® 5" Collection

Bethany, Wine Vineyard Worker – 5" Scale by Fontanini

Brand: House of Fontanini | Part Number: 57526

Celebrate the rich agricultural heritage of biblical Bethlehem with the beautifully crafted Bethany, Wine Vineyard Worker from the Fontanini 5" Collection. Carrying a woven basket overflowing with freshly harvested grapes, apples, and seasonal fruit while holding a traditional clay water jug, Bethany represents the hardworking families whose daily lives formed the backdrop of Scripture. Her graceful posture and peaceful expression reflect the simple faith, generosity, and dedication that characterized village life during the time of Christ.

Expertly handcrafted and hand-painted in Italy, Bethany is dressed in a flowing peach-colored skirt accented by a soft pink sash and a classic white blouse. Every detail—from the realistic fruit and woven basket to the folds of her garments and the texture of the earthenware water jug—is carefully sculpted and individually painted by skilled Fontanini artisans. The result is a figure rich in warmth, realism, and timeless Italian craftsmanship.

As a member of the Fontanini Centennial Collection, Bethany adds depth and authenticity to your 5-inch Nativity village by portraying one of the ordinary people whose lives revolved around vineyards, orchards, and the harvest. Throughout the Bible, vineyards symbolize God's blessings, abundance, and fruitfulness, making this figure a meaningful addition to any Fontanini display. Whether placed near a marketplace, vineyard, village home, or shepherd's path, Bethany helps tell the everyday story surrounding the birth of Christ.

At House of Fontanini, we invite you to shop Fontanini with confidence, knowing you're purchasing authentic Fontanini collectibles from people who share your passion for preserving the Christmas story. Whether you're expanding an established village or beginning your first Fontanini Nativity collection, Bethany brings beauty, character, and historical richness to every display.

The Fontanini Nativity tradition began more than a century ago in Bagni di Lucca, nestled in the beautiful hills of Tuscany, Italy, where Emanuele Fontanini opened his first workshop in 1908. From humble beginnings, the Fontanini family has grown into one of the world's most respected creators of heirloom-quality Nativity sets and figurines. Every figure is meticulously sculpted, molded from durable polymer, and individually hand-painted by skilled artisans using techniques passed down through generations.

Today, House of Fontanini.com proudly continues that tradition by offering authentic Fontanini collections directly to collectors across the United States. For more than 25 years, we've been a locally owned Minnesota small business that doesn't simply sell Fontanini—we truly love it. From our Minnesota warehouse, our mission remains:

"Telling His Story, one piece at a time."
