Blacksmith and Tradesman Stall (Lighted) – Fontanini® 5" Collection

Brand: House of Fontanini • Item #: 55637

Bring the warmth and craftsmanship of ancient Bethlehem to your nativity display with the Blacksmith and Tradesman Stall (Lighted) from the Fontanini® 5" Collection. This beautifully detailed village structure captures one of the most important trades of the era—the blacksmith—whose work shaped the tools, hardware, and everyday essentials used throughout the village.

At the heart of the stall is a glowing forge that flickers with warm light, creating the appearance of a working furnace where iron is heated and shaped by skilled hands. Surrounding the forge are carefully sculpted blacksmith tools, wooden bellows, and a sturdy workbench that reflects the rugged, hardworking nature of the trade. Weathered wooden beams and stone-textured walls complete the rustic character, giving your Bethlehem village an authentic atmosphere full of life and purpose.

Designed for the beloved Fontanini 5" scale nativity figures, this structure pairs beautifully with Orion the Blacksmith (sold separately) to create a bustling village scene. Whether placed near the marketplace or beside other tradesman shops, this lighted stall adds warmth, movement, and realism that draws the eye and enriches your nativity storytelling.

The Fontanini Nativity tradition began more than a century ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, in the hills of Tuscany when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first workshop in 1908. From those humble beginnings, the Fontanini family created a world-renowned tradition of heirloom-quality nativity sets and village pieces. Each piece is carefully sculpted, molded from durable materials, and hand-painted by skilled artisans in a multi-generational family-guided process.

Today that tradition continues here at HouseOfFontanini.com, where for more than 25 years our Minnesota-based small business has proudly helped collectors build meaningful nativity displays. We don’t just sell Fontanini—we truly love it. Our mission says it best:

“Telling His Story, one piece at a time.”

Whether you are expanding a detailed Bethlehem village or beginning your collection, this stunning lighted forge is a wonderful addition. Many collectors visit us to shop Fontanini and build their villages piece by piece, making House of Fontanini a trusted Fontanini outlet for authentic nativity sets, figures, and village accessories.
