Melchior, one of the three Kings present at the birth of Jesus. Made of marble based resin for the 27 inch Nativity set by Fontanini. Melchior is the name given in later legend to one of the Magi appearing in the Gospel of Matthew. This beautifully crafted, large scale statue is one of the three kings accompanying the 27" Nativity set created by the Italian Fontanini workshop. Saint Melchior gave the gift of gold.
