Jacob, Fisherman - Fontanini® Lifesize 50" Nativity Collection

Jacob, Fisherman – Fontanini® Lifesize 50" Nativity Figure
Brand: House of Fontanini | Item #: 52320

Jacob, the Fisherman, is portrayed seated upon a rocky ledge, fishing rod in hand and eyes gently lifted toward the horizon. His calm posture and reflective expression evoke the peaceful rhythm of daily life — a quiet moment of patience, trust, and humble devotion. This lifesize figure beautifully complements large-scale Nativity displays, adding narrative depth and a sense of lived-in realism to the scene.

Fontanini’s celebrated Italian craftsmanship is evident in every detail, from the natural folds of Jacob’s garments to the textured finishes of wood and stone. Each piece is meticulously hand-sculpted and hand-painted by skilled artisans, preserving the warmth, character, and reverence that define Fontanini creations.

The Fontanini Nativity tradition, proudly carried on by House of Fontanini, began over a century ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, where Emanuele Fontanini opened his first workshop in 1908. Today, this heritage continues through heirloom-quality figures crafted in Italy using marble-based resin and finished by hand. For over 25 years, House of Fontanini has been honored to share this legacy with collectors, churches, and families across the country.

Here in our Minnesota warehouse, we proudly live our mission:
“Telling His Story, one piece at a time.”
