Joseph (Nativity Piece) - HUM 2230/B HSC 69139093

The Nativity Scene - a Christian Christmas symbol.

A lifetime of faith begins with the strength of a protector. Honor the quiet pillar of the Holy Family with Joseph (HUM 2230/B). As a foundational piece of the M.I. Hummel Nativity, this figurine captures Joseph in a moment of humble devotion and watchful care. Standing as a symbol of protection and unwavering faith, he is an indispensable addition to your holiday display, representing the earthly guardian of the Christmas miracle.

This piece is a celebration of sacred history and master craftsmanship. Designed as one of the most vital figures in the 17-piece Nativity Scene, Joseph is meticulously hand-painted in Rödental, Germany. Every detail—from the soft, natural tones of his robes to the lantern he holds to light the way—is crafted to transform the story of the First Christmas into a tangible heirloom. Whether placed at the center of a mantle or as the heart of a grand stable, Joseph brings a sense of serene strength to your seasonal traditions.

To create the ultimate tribute to the First Christmas, pair Joseph with these essential Nativity companions:

• Mary (HUM 2230/A): Complete the core of the Holy Family by placing Joseph alongside the serene and prayerful Mary.

• Shepherd with Staff (HUM 2230/D): Surround the Holy Family with the humble witnesses who first arrived to honor the newborn King.

• Gaspar (HUM 2230/J): Add the royal presence of the Magi to contrast with Joseph’s humble, protective stance.
