This enchanting sculpture captures the sweetness and serenity of a celestial messenger. The angel, depicted with a childlike, serene face, is caught in the act of offering a small, precious gift. Its wings, finished with a brilliant gold leaf that enhances their feathered texture, splendidly contrast with the olive-green tunic, patinated and rich in soft folds.
Every detail, from the brown curls framing the face to the gentle expression with lips barely hinting at a smile, testifies to the mastery of the sculptors of Val Gardena. Dolfi craftsmanship is expressed in hand painting, where the rosy hues of the cheeks give life and warmth.
This statue is entirely carved from precious maple wood, the material of choice for figures up to 56 cm (available in sizes 5 cm, 8 cm, and 12 cm). A true "little gift" of faith and beauty, perfect for celebrating special moments with a touch of sacred art.
