Cheese Cart – Fontanini® 5" Collection

Brand: House of Fontanini | Item #: 55652

Bring the warmth and bustle of an authentic Bethlehem marketplace to your Nativity village with the Fontanini Cheese Cart, a beautifully handcrafted accessory designed for the beloved 5" Fontanini Italian Nativity Collection. Newly redesigned and introduced for 2026, this charming market cart showcases stacked artisan-style wheels of cheese, realistic wooden construction, rope-tied details, and hand-painted finishes that capture the everyday life surrounding the Christmas story.

Perfect for creating a lively village marketplace, the Cheese Cart adds depth, realism, and storytelling to your display. Position it alongside the Cheese Monger, shepherds, merchants, or other market accessories to recreate the sights and activity of ancient Bethlehem. While the Holy Family remains the heart of every Nativity, pieces like this remind us of the ordinary people and daily life that surrounded the miraculous birth of Christ.

Expertly crafted from durable resin and individually hand-painted, every Cheese Cart reflects the artistry and attention to detail that have made Fontanini one of the world's most cherished Nativity collections. Whether you're expanding an established display or beginning a new village scene, this accessory brings warmth, authenticity, and timeless character to your Christmas tradition.

The Fontanini Nativity tradition began over a century ago in Bagni di Lucca, nestled in the hills of Tuscany, Italy, when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first workshop in 1908. From humble beginnings, the Fontanini family built a world-renowned legacy of heirloom-quality Nativity figures and village accessories. Today, every piece continues that tradition through meticulous sculpting, detailed molding, and careful hand-painting by skilled artisans, creating collectibles treasured by families for generations.

At House of Fontanini, we're honored to continue that tradition. For more than 25 years, our family-owned Minnesota business has specialized exclusively in Fontanini collectibles, helping collectors across the country build meaningful Nativity displays that tell the greatest story ever told. We proudly live by our mission:

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

Whether you're adding a bustling marketplace or completing an entire Bethlehem village, you'll find everything you need when you shop Fontanini at House of Fontanini, your trusted source for authentic Fontanini Italian Nativity collectibles.
