Nativity Set Matthew 24 Figurines Dolfi Collection — Hand-Painted Wooden Nativity Scene The Matthew Nativity Set from the Dolfi collection is a majestic and tradition-rich representation of the Nativity. This artisanal ensemble includes 24 finely sculpted and hand-painted figurines, recreating the complete scene: the Holy Family, the Three Wise Men, shepherds with their gifts, the glory angel, and stable animals such as a donkey, an ox, and sheep. Each figure is carefully crafted in the Val Gardena tradition, with expressive details and chromatic finishes that enhance the wood and the artisanal workmanship. Perfect for collectors and for those who desire a Nativity scene that is faithful to tradition and visually impactful.
Each figure is sculpted with meticulous attention to detail, highlighting the dignity of the poses and the tenderness of the expressions, especially the serene and contemplative one of the Madonna towards the Baby Jesus. The careful study of the drapery of the clothes and the painted finishes, ranging from earthy and natural tones to precious golden accents on the angels' wings and the Magi's gifts, confer a vibrant realism and a warm artisanal atmosphere.
Artisanal Quality and Materials: This exclusive set is made following the ancient and renowned sculptural tradition of Val Gardena. For all available sizes (from 6 cm to 18 cm), we exclusively use solid maple wood. This precious wood is chosen for its fine grain and its resistance, qualities that allow our master carvers to achieve sharp contours and impeccable sculptural precision. The finish is entirely hand-painted by expert artists, making each figurine an invaluable and unique piece of sacred art.
