Jesus with Manger – 27" Masterpiece Collection

House of Fontanini | Item #53113

At the heart of every Nativity stands the Christ Child — the promise fulfilled on that Holy Night in Bethlehem. The Jesus with Manger – 27" Masterpiece Collection (Item 53113) beautifully captures Infant Jesus resting peacefully with arms gently outstretched in welcome. His tender expression, delicately sculpted features, and carefully hand-painted eyes reflect both innocence and divinity.

The richly textured manger is finished in layered tones of warm ivory and soft gold, framing the Child in a reverent glow that draws the eye inward. Every fold of His white garment and every strand of sculpted straw has been thoughtfully detailed, making this piece the emotional and spiritual centerpiece of your 27" scale Nativity display.

Crafted in Italy and designed for institutional or large-scale displays, this 2-piece set features a removable Infant Jesus figure — allowing flexibility for Advent presentation and Christmas Day placement. Whether displayed in a church, chapel, school, or grand home setting, this heirloom-quality piece radiates timeless beauty and devotion.

The Fontanini Tradition

The Fontanini Nativity tradition began over 100 years ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, in the hills of Tuscany, when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first shop in 1908. From humble beginnings, the Fontanini family has grown into a world-renowned creator of heirloom-quality Nativity sets and figurines.

Each piece is meticulously sculpted, molded, and hand-painted by skilled Italian artisans in a multi-generational, family-guided process.

Today, here at House of Fontanini, we proudly carry on that legacy through retail and e-commerce sales direct to the consumer. For over 25 years, our locally owned Minnesota small business has not only sold Fontanini — we truly love it.

From our Minnesota warehouse, we joyfully live out our mission:
“Telling His Story, one piece at a time.”
