Sheep in terracotta and wool for 10-12 cm Neapolitan Nativity Scene.
This standing sheep enriches the pastoral scenes of the Neapolitan Nativity, accompanying shepherds and the flock with a figure firmly rooted in the Nativity tradition.
The animal’s natural posture allows easy placement in various settings, helping to make the Nativity Scene more realistic.
The figurine features a terracotta body with a wool fleece, a combination that enhances the sculptural details and highlights its handcrafted character. Careful modelling gives expressiveness to the animal, while the woolwork adds softness and depth to the coat.
Produced by Creazioni Paolo e Giulia, an Italian artisan workshop that handcrafts figures and animals following the Neapolitan Nativity tradition. Each piece is made using time-honoured techniques with particular attention to detail.
As an artisanal product, the fleece and some finishing details may present slight variations from one figurine to another, a characteristic that makes every piece unique.
Ideal for completing Nativity Scenes with figures measuring between 10 and 12 cm.
