Thaddeus, innkeeper - Fontanini Nativity Figure
5 in Fontanini Figure, Gift Boxed
Master sculptor: Elio Simonetti
Fontanini Story for Thaddeus: Thaddeus had always treasured his father's heritage, a busy inn located in Bethlehem. He and his wife, Elisabeth, acted as the hosts. The inn was especially busy that winter since Caesar Augustus had ordered all citizens to revisit their places of birth to register for a census. This night Thaddeus warmly welcomes his most special guests yet.
About Fontanini Nativities: The Italian tradition of recreating the Nativity scene began centuries ago. Four generations of the Fontanini family have brought this time-honored Italian tradition into homes all over the world. These marvelous Nativity figures are still crafted in Bagni di Lucca, a charming Italian village nestled in the hills of Tuscany. Created in virtually unbreakable polymer, the figures are hand-painted and given a rich patina finish by skilled artisans. They glow with the look of antique wood, yet are sturdy enough to stand up to years of loving use by the entire family.
