20" Scale Seated Camel by Fontanini

House of Fontanini | Item #: 53445

Camels have long been known as steadfast companions of travelers—faithfully carrying goods, treasures, and even kings across vast desert landscapes. The 20" Scale Seated Camel by Fontanini beautifully captures that enduring spirit, portrayed in a calm resting pose after completing the long journey to Bethlehem with the Magi.

Expertly sculpted and hand-painted in Italy, this heirloom-quality piece features a richly detailed saddle with leather-like straps and a soft teal drape accented by sculpted tassels. Every fold, strap, and contour reflects Fontanini’s renowned artistry and commitment to authenticity. Crafted from durable marble-based resin, this camel is designed to stand the test of time as part of your cherished nativity display.

Perfectly scaled for 20" Fontanini Italian Nativity figures, this seated camel makes a graceful and meaningful companion to the Three Wise Men. Its presence adds depth, realism, and storytelling richness to your larger-scale nativity scene.

At House of Fontanini, we are honored to carry on a tradition that began over 100 years ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first shop in 1908. Today, that same family-guided artistry continues in every piece. For over 25 years, our locally owned small business has proudly served collectors from our Minnesota warehouse, sharing our mission:

“Telling His Story, one piece at a time.”

Shop Fontanini with confidence and discover timeless craftsmanship designed to be passed down for generations. Be sure to explore our full collection and visit the Fontanini Outlet for special finds and treasured additions to your nativity display.
