Pizzaiolo, terracotta, 8 cm Neapolitan Nativity figurine.
Holding the peel and a freshly baked pizza, this figurine depicts the pizzaiolo, one of the characters that best represent the culture and popular traditions of Naples.
The scene evokes the atmosphere of the old workshops, enriching the Nativity with one of the neighbourhood's most characteristic trades.
The figure is modelled in terracotta and finished with fabric clothing, materials that lend balance to the composition and highlight the artisanal workmanship.
Careful attention to detail, from posture to accessories, gives the figure a natural and harmonious appearance.
The figurine is made by Creazioni Paolo e Giulia, an Italian artisan workshop that preserves the Neapolitan Nativity tradition through an entirely handmade production process.
Small variations in fabrics and finishes are a feature of artisanal production and make each piece unique.
Ideal for displays with 8 cm figures, this character complements scenes dedicated to trades and everyday life in the Nativity.
