About the Fontanini Tradition

The Fontanini Nativity tradition carried on here at House of Fontanini began over 100 years ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, in the hills of Tuscany by Emanuele Fontanini. After opening his first shop in 1908, he established a family business that has grown from humble beginnings into a world-renowned creator of heirloom-quality Nativity sets and figurines.

Each figure is meticulously sculpted, molded, and hand-painted by skilled artisans in a multi-generational, family-guided process. Crafted from durable polymer, Fontanini pieces are designed to be treasured and passed down for generations.

For over 25 years, House of Fontanini has proudly carried this tradition through retail and e-commerce sales direct to the consumer. As a locally owned Minnesota small business, we not only sell Fontanini — we love it.

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