This splendid Christmas ornament unites two arts of the Gardena tradition into a single, evocative masterpiece. The outer frame, expertly crafted from linden wood through meticulous laser carving, recreates the cozy silhouette of the Bethlehem stable and the surrounding landscape, illuminated by the Star of Bethlehem.
At its center, nestled like a sacred treasure, shines the Holy Family, a three-dimensional figurine hand-carved from precious maple wood, perfect for capturing every minute detail at 15 cm. Mary, with her expression of pure tenderness, cradles the Baby Jesus, while Joseph watches over them with serene contemplation and his lantern. The details, from the delicate golden cord for hanging it, to the stylized figures of animals and shepherds engraved in the frame, celebrate the enchantment of Christmas. Each piece is finely hand-painted with oil and opaque acrylic colors, giving the figures unparalleled warmth and depth. This ornament is not just a decoration, but a tangible symbol of faith and craftsmanship from Val Gardena.
