Donkey Family

The Donkey Family from Fontanini is a gift-boxed, 5” scale Fontanini Heirloom Nativity 3-piece set made of polymer and hand-painted in Italy with non-toxic paints. These sturdy animals transported people and goods long distances. They also helped farmers with many of their daily chores. It was a donkey that brought Mary and Joseph from Egypt to Bethlehem. Also, it has long been believed donkeys were in the stable when Jesus was born.

A delightful accompaniment to this figurine is a story card which offers a fictional account of the Donkey Family at the time of Christ’s birth. Offering a step back in time to Biblical Bethlehem, Fontanini story cards provide memory-making opportunities and have become a cherished tradition for many families.
