70 Inch Baby Jesus by Fontanini

Brand: House of Fontanini | Part Number: 57703

The 70 Inch Baby Jesus by Fontanini is the sacred centerpiece of the life-size Fontanini Nativity Collection, beautifully portraying the newborn Savior with remarkable realism, warmth, and reverence. Designed to complete Fontanini's magnificent 70-inch scale Nativity, this heirloom-quality figure captures the innocence of the Christ Child through softly sculpted features, gentle facial expression, and welcoming outstretched arms that invite all to reflect on the miracle of Christmas.

Masterfully handcrafted and hand-painted in Italy, every detail reflects the extraordinary artistry that has made Fontanini one of the world's most respected names in Nativity craftsmanship. Delicate facial features, expressive blue eyes, softly curled hair, realistic skin tones, and subtle hand-painted shading bring this life-size figure to life, creating a moving focal point for churches, chapels, schools, commercial displays, and outdoor Nativity scenes.

Crafted from premium marble-based resin, this impressive Baby Jesus figure offers exceptional durability while preserving the fine sculptural detail expected from authentic Italian craftsmanship. Whether displayed in the matching 70 Inch Fontanini Manger (Part #57704) or as part of the complete life-size Holy Family, this figure becomes the heart of every Nativity display, reminding visitors of the humble birth that forever changed the world.

At House of Fontanini, we invite you to shop Fontanini with confidence, knowing you're purchasing authentic Fontanini creations from a retailer that shares your love for preserving the Christmas story. Whether furnishing a parish sanctuary, church, cathedral, school, or creating an unforgettable outdoor Nativity display, this magnificent Baby Jesus figure represents the faith, craftsmanship, and tradition collectors have treasured for generations.

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 established his first workshop in 1908. From those humble beginnings, the Fontanini family has grown into one of the world's most celebrated creators of heirloom-quality Nativity collections. Today, skilled artisans continue the family tradition by handcrafting and hand-painting every piece with meticulous attention to detail, preserving techniques passed down through generations.

For over 25 years, House of Fontanini.com has proudly carried on that tradition by bringing authentic Fontanini collections directly to collectors, churches, and families throughout the United States. As a locally owned Minnesota small business, we don't simply sell Fontanini—we truly love it. From our Minnesota warehouse, we proudly live by our mission:

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