PEMA Kostner Hand-Carved Nativity Lamb Jumping from Val Gardena
The PEMA Kostner Nativity Lamb Jumping is a finely hand-carved figure 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 lamb brings motion, joy, and youthful energy to traditional nativity scenes.
The lamb is captured mid-leap as it jumps over a small wooden fence, creating a dynamic and playful composition. A delicate collar with a small bell adorns its neck, while the flowing texture of the wool and gentle shading add realism and warmth. The raised posture and curved tail convey liveliness and contrast beautifully with more restful animal figures.
This lamb 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 figurine and is not included in any PEMA Kostner nativity set. Additional sizes and finishes may be available upon request.
