Moor Wise Man kneeling for 8-10 cm Neapolitan Nativity, terracotta, measures 7x5x6 cm.
The figurine depicts the Moor Wise Man on his knees offering his gift to the Christ Child, evoking the moment of the Adoration of the Magi. The face and limbs are modelled in terracotta, while the garments are made of fabric and hand-finished in the traditional Neapolitan Nativity style.
Made by Creazioni Paolo e Giulia, an artisan workshop rooted in the Neapolitan Nativity tradition. The modelling of the terracotta, painting, dressing and finishing are carried out entirely by hand, preserving the techniques and craftsmanship of Naples' historic Nativity art.
Because the fabrics used for the costumes are of limited availability, each piece is unique: colours, patterns and small details may vary slightly from the photographs, a quality that enhances the artisanal character of every figurine.
Ideal for completing an Adoration of the Magi scene or to accompany other Nativity figures 8-10 cm tall.
