PEMA Kostner Hand-Carved Nativity Cat Sitting from Val Gardena
The PEMA Kostner Nativity Cat Sitting is a finely hand-carved wooden figurine crafted in Val Gardena, Italy, a region celebrated for its long-standing Alpine woodcarving heritage. Carved from sycamore maple and finished with hand-applied oil paints, this piece adds a quiet sense of warmth and everyday life to a traditional nativity display.
The cat is shown seated in a relaxed posture, gazing gently to the left, with its tail gracefully wrapped around its body. The soft two-tone brown and white coloring highlights the carved fur texture and gives the figure a lifelike, expressive presence. Its calm demeanor provides a subtle contrast to more active animals within the scene.
Available in 4", 5", and 6.5" sizes, this figurine is scaled to match Joseph within corresponding PEMA Kostner nativity sets. It is offered as an optional add-on and is not included in any nativity set. Additional sizes and finishes may be available upon request. Please Contact Us for assistance.
