King Balthazar – Item 72916 – Fontanini® 12\" Collection

House of Fontanini | Part #72916

King Balthazar is portrayed stepping forward with his gift, captured in a moment rich with tradition and movement. Dressed in flowing golden robes accented by a deep green mantle and subtle red tones, his garments are sculpted with layered folds that create beautiful depth and realism. His crown rests upon silver hair, and his finely detailed facial features and offering vessel reflect the refined artistry that defines Fontanini’s heirloom-quality Nativity figures.

Traditionally remembered as the king who brought myrrh to the Christ Child — a gift symbolizing sacrifice and foreshadowing Christ’s mission — Balthazar’s presence completes the meaningful story of the Epiphany. His reverent posture and carefully crafted expression make this figure a striking and essential addition to any 12\" scale Nativity scene.

Crafted in Italy from durable polymer, this 12\" King Balthazar figure is meticulously sculpted, molded, and hand-painted by skilled artisans. The attention to color, texture, and expression ensures a lifelike appearance that blends beautifully with other figures in the Fontanini 12\" Collection.

The Fontanini Legacy

The Fontanini Nativity tradition began over 100 years ago in Bagni di Lucca, Italy, in the hills of Tuscany, when Emanuele Fontanini opened his first shop in 1908. From humble beginnings, the Fontanini family established a world-renowned legacy of heirloom-quality Nativity sets and figurines. Each figure is carefully sculpted and hand-painted through a multi-generational, family-guided process that honors Italian craftsmanship.

Today, that treasured tradition continues at House of Fontanini, where we proudly provide retail and e-commerce sales directly to collectors across the country. For over 25 years, we have been a locally owned small business dedicated to sharing these meaningful pieces. From our Minnesota warehouse, we live by our mission:

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