Unique details in natural bark

Immerse yourself in the essence of contemporary sacred art with the Abstract Angel "Corteccia". This unique sculpture captivates the eye through a powerful material contrast: its conical, slender, and static form evokes the purity of the angelic figure reduced to its essential.

The central body, crafted with the mastery of Val Gardena artisans, features an extraordinarily rough and irregular texture that faithfully mimics the ancient bark of a tree. This tactile effect, in shades of brown and earthy grey, blends beautifully with the smooth, luminous cream-beige inner sides. Crowned atop this minimalist figure are the wide, enveloping wings, characterized by a rusty matte metallic finish, adding depth and a sense of time to the piece.

According to our tradition, this splendid work, available in a 30 cm size, is entirely carved from precious maple wood, chosen for its fine grain, ideal for accommodating such a detailed and textured artistic finish. A design masterpiece that combines the ancient art of wood carving with a modern and meditative aesthetic.

1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Angels, wings, wood (bark).
2) Religious meaning: Angels are divine messengers, protectors, and spiritual guides. Wings symbolize their celestial nature and the ability to connect the earthly with the divine. Wood, a natural material, can evoke creation and life.

Saint Valentine, a Roman bishop and martyr of the third century, is universally recognized as the patron saint of lovers. His figure is shrouded in legends, including one in which he celebrates secret marriages between young Christians, contravening the prohibitions of Emperor Claudius II. Another tells of how he restored sight to the blind daughter of his jailer, Asterius, before being beheaded on February 14, 269 AD. His veneration spread rapidly, and the day of his death became the celebration of lovers, celebrating love in all its forms, uniting the sacred with the profane in a message of devotion and affection.
