What colors did the “Three Wise Men” wear?
I am painting a ceramic nativity set and I would like to match the colors as much as possible. Also, what colors did Mary and Joseph wear?

None of those Details are Recorded.
Mary and Joesph were Poor, and Traveling. Realism would say Browns or Tans, as Dyes were VERY Expensive…Well beyond the means of a Carpenter. White is Hard to keep Clean on the Road, more so in a Stable.
The Wise Men, Kings, Merchants, or Scholar types from the East would Likely have Colored Silks, especially once they Found their Quested King. Purples and Blues were Common choices

at a guess, probably the rich colors of red and yellow, perhaps blues and greens from perhaps the silk trade route? however, browns and tans, perhaps whites are a good guess…its hard to say..all i can suggest is, have a look at other artists impressions, look at current culture of that region and find some similarities…and use the information you gather from here…but overall, your the artist, its your choice
