Aaron the Shepherd – Fontanini® 5" Collection

House of Fontanini | Item #72563

Bring youthful imagination and heartfelt devotion to your Nativity display with Aaron the Shepherd from the beloved Fontanini® 5" Collection.

Aaron is portrayed in lively motion, grasping a spirited lamb with both determination and care — a touching reminder of the responsibility and tenderness of those who tend their flocks. His windswept hair and eager expression capture the wonder of a young boy whose imagination once carried him far beyond the hills of Bethlehem. Dreaming of camel caravans and distant deserts, Aaron would saddle up to his sheep, pretending they were mighty camels on grand adventures. His included story card beautifully shares this charming tale of youthful dreams and faithful service.

Handcrafted in Italy, Aaron is meticulously sculpted from durable polymer and hand-painted in warm earthy browns, rich reds, and soft greens. His yellow tunic, brown vest, red trousers, and green scarf bring vibrant movement and depth to your 5" scale Nativity scene.

For over a century, the Fontanini family tradition began in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, in the hills of Tuscany when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first shop in 1908. What started as a humble workshop has grown into a world-renowned heirloom collection, lovingly molded and hand-painted by skilled artisans in a multi-generational process.

Today at HouseofFontanini.com, we proudly continue that legacy from our Minnesota warehouse. As a locally owned small business for over 25 years, we cherish our mission:

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

Aaron the Shepherd adds personality, movement, and heartfelt storytelling to any Nativity display — a perfect piece for collectors who appreciate both craftsmanship and charm.
