Admire the artisanal mastery of this unique sculpture, where nature merges with the sacred art of Val Gardena. The exterior of the silhouette, inspired by a conifer tree, is skillfully finished to replicate the material and rough texture of tree bark, offering a profound tactile and visual contrast. This exterior finish varies in warm shades of dark brown and reddish, accentuating the alpine authenticity of the piece.
The stylized tree silhouette, 18.5 cm high, frames an intimate and luminous scene. At its center, an oval opening reveals a bas-relief carving on maple wood, which, with its smooth, clear cream-colored finish, highlights every detail. The internal scene captures a majestic deer with large branching antlers, a symbol of woodland royalty, standing next to a small conifer. This combination of textures and tones makes the object a distinctive masterpiece, celebrating the harmony between the raw element of nature (the bark) and the perfection of the sculpture (the deer).
