Up for auction today we have a superb 17 piece Fontanini nativity set from the early 1980's. This is the 6" series set with the ceramic look skin tone and pastel clothing colors (not the more common 5" series with wood look skin tone). This series was produced by Fontanini for only a few short years. The pieces are made of a hard resin type material, and hold up well even when children play with and rearrange it! This set is considered rare when in its entirety. It would make a beautiful gift.Two Mary figures were produced for this set, and both are included here: the traditional Mary with veil and Mary without veil, which I just used as a villager woman.In addition to the two Mary figures, there are two somewhat rare figures included: Ezra with eggs and Daniel with horn.Here is a complete listing of the pieces by number:601 Mary without veil601 Mary with veil602 Joseph603 manger with separate Jesus figure604 ox or cow605 donkey606 standing wiseman or king607 standing wiseman or king608 kneeling wiseman or king609 man with bagpipes610 shepherd611 Daniel with horn612 Ezra with basket of eggs613 angel with hanging loop621 sheep with head down622 sheep with head upAll human figures except Baby Jesus are stamped "Depose Italy" and the number 601, 602, etc and the spider markBaby Jesus is marked "Italy" and the manger is marked "Depose
