PEMA Kostner Hand-Carved Nativity Pair of Kids from Val Gardena
The PEMA Kostner Nativity Pair of Kids is a finely hand-carved 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, these two young goats add warmth, charm, and a sense of companionship to traditional nativity scenes.
The figures are shown standing closely together, their heads gently inclined toward one another in a natural and affectionate pose. Each kid wears a small collar with a bell, adding a delightful pastoral detail. The subtle shading of their coats and the careful carving of their features bring life and movement to this small but expressive grouping.
This Pair of Kids is available in 4", 5", and 6.5" sizes and is carefully scaled to match Joseph within each corresponding nativity set. It is offered as an optional add-on figure and is not included in any PEMA Kostner nativity set. Additional sizes and finishes may be available upon request.
