PEMA Kostner Hand-Carved Nativity Lamb Lying Looking Left from Val Gardena
The PEMA Kostner Lamb Lying Looking Left is a finely hand-carved nativity animal 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 figure adds gentleness and quiet warmth to traditional nativity scenes.
The lamb is shown resting comfortably on the ground with its legs tucked beneath its softly carved body. Its head is raised and turned slightly to the left, giving the figure an alert yet peaceful expression. A small collar with a delicate bell adorns its neck, adding a charming detail that enhances realism and character.
This lamb is available in 4", 5", and 6.5" sizes and is included as part of the PEMA Kostner 15-piece nativity set. Each size is carefully scaled to match Joseph within the corresponding set, ensuring visual harmony throughout the display. Additional sizes and finishes may be available upon request.
