The Fontanini Tradition The beloved Fontanini Nativity tradition began in 1908 in Bagni di Lucca, nestled among the rolling hills of Tuscany, Italy. There, Emanuele Fontanini established a family workshop dedicated to creating beautiful Nativity figures that would become treasured family heirlooms around the world. For more than a century, the Fontanini family has continued this remarkable tradition of excellence. Each piece is carefully sculpted, crafted from durable materials, and meticulously hand-painted by skilled artisans through a multi-generational process that preserves the artistry and heritage of the Fontanini name. Today, House of Fontanini proudly continues that tradition by offering authentic Fontanini Italian Nativity pieces directly to collectors throughout the United States. For more than 25 years, our locally owned Minnesota small business has specialized in helping families build meaningful Nativity displays that celebrate the true story of Christmas. We don't simply sell Fontanini—we're passionate collectors ourselves. Our mission remains: "Telling His Story, one piece at a time." Whether you're expanding an established collection or beginning your very first Nativity village, we invite you to shop Fontanini at House of Fontanini and experience the beauty, craftsmanship, and enduring tradition that have made Fontanini one of the world's most beloved Nativity collections.
