PEMA Kostner Hand-Carved Nativity Holy Family with Manger from Val Gardena
The PEMA Kostner Holy Family with Manger is a finely hand-carved nativity grouping crafted in Val Gardena, Italy, where Alpine woodcarving traditions have been preserved for generations. Carved from sycamore maple and finished with hand-applied oil paints, this grouping forms the centerpiece of the traditional Nativity scene.
Mary kneels beside the manger in a red gown with a blue cape trimmed in golden accents and a cream headscarf. Infant Jesus rests in a straw-lined wooden manger and can be removed for traditional display. Joseph stands nearby holding a lantern, dressed in gray garments with a darker cape and golden lining. Together, the figures convey reverence, warmth, and quiet devotion.
This Holy Family is available in 4", 5", and 6.5" sizes and is included exclusively as part of the PEMA Kostner 15-piece nativity set. Each size is scaled to Saint Joseph to ensure harmony across the scene. Additional sizes and finishes may be available upon request. Please Contact Us for assistance.
