Description

Let yourself be transported into the desert atmosphere with this dromedary sculpture, an essential piece in any nativity scene that tells the journey of the Magi. The animal is depicted in a majestic but tired pose, with its head slightly raised, revealing the fatigue of the long journey. The shades of brown and ochre, mimicking the fur, contrast elegantly with the meticulous details of the load.

Observe the incredible precision of the luggage: the main burden tied with crossed straps, the rolls of green-blue fabric, and the rectangular faux leather bag, complete with a buckle. Each element is carved and hand-painted to give unparalleled tactile and visual realism. The pink nostrils and half-closed eyes add a touch of humanity to the animal figure.

True to the tradition of Val Gardena craftsmanship, this figurine is entirely carved from precious maple wood for all available sizes (from 6 to 14 cm). We offer option C (coloured), N (natural) and 3G (three shades of brown), each capable of enhancing the deep texture of the sculpture and the mastery of detail.

Detail & Meaning
1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Camel with saddle and suitcase.
2) Religious meaning: The camel symbolizes the journey of the Three Wise Men, bearers of gifts and witnesses of the Nativity, representing the arrival and homage to Baby Jesus.
Story
The camel, a symbol of humility and service, is a traditional element of the nativity scene, evoking the journey of the Three Wise Men to Bethlehem. Although not directly associated with a specific saint, its presence in the crib refers to the Holy Family and the Nativity of Jesus, the heart of the Christian faith. Its figure evokes devotion and perseverance in the path of faith, a call to spiritual search and the worship of the Divine.
