Donkey ( Nativity Piece) - HUM 2230/N HSC 69139093

A Faithful Companion for the Journey to Bethlehem The Donkey (HUM 2230/N) is one of the most classic and indispensable figures in any traditional Nativity scene. Linked to the Christmas story from the very beginning, the donkey represents the humble transport that carried Mary to Bethlehem. Beyond the manger, the donkey is a profound biblical symbol; in the Old Testament, these animals were a measure of a person's wealth and status, yet in the New Testament, they signify the quiet humility of the Savior's birth.

Masterfully rendered with soft grey fur and an alert, gentle expression, this M.I. Hummel figurine is hand-painted in Rödental, Germany. The detail in the coat and the lifelike posture make it a vital "building block" for a realistic, stable environment. Whether as a transport animal for the Holy Family or a peaceful resident of the stable, this donkey brings historical depth and warmth to your holiday display.

The Donkey is a loyal companion, but he shouldn't be alone! Build a vibrant, lifelike stable by pairing him with these essential animals and sets:

• Young Calf (HUM 2230/M) – The traditional stablemate for the donkey, completing the "ox and ass" prophecy.

• Lamb Standing (HUM 2230/P) – Add a touch of innocence to your animal gathering.

• Lamb Lying (HUM 2230/O) – A resting companion to create a natural, pastoral scene.

• Full 17-Piece Nativity Set & Stable – The definitive M.I. Hummel holiday centerpiece.
