Presenting a set of 3 vintage Fontanini polymer nativity figurines from 1983. In incredible detail and muted coloration, the three wise men sit atop their camels on their way to finding the Christ child. They hold their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The figurines are in two parts; the kings fit into the top the camels. They are each marked with "Fontanini 1983" and Depose Italy, ASS. 350 and a spider? symbol". Each king is 5" tall and 10" tall as he sits on the camel. Each camel is about 8" long. Truly collectible and made to last, these tough polymer figurines can be passed down through the generations.
