This extraordinary work of sacred art captures the purest essence of Christmas intimacy. The sculpture, depicting the Holy Family (Nativity), is an ode to tenderness and protection, enclosed in a transparent glass dome that elevates it to a true collector's gem.
The craftsmanship is characterized by a high degree of stylization: the figures of Saint Joseph and the Virgin Mary merge in a curvilinear and compact embrace that cradles the Baby Jesus at the center. The absence of distinct facial details directs attention to the pose itself, a universal vehicle of love and welcome. The colored finishes feature delicate pastel shades – warm ochre, salmon pink, and cerulean blue – which enhance the fluidity of the forms, creating a sense of warmth and peace.
Crafted with the mastery that distinguishes Val Gardena craftsmanship, the 20 cm statue is entirely carved from maple wood, a preferred material for Dolfi sculptures of this size, known for its fine grain and its ability to perfectly accommodate the finish. It is available in both finely hand-painted and natural versions, allowing you to choose the aesthetic expression best suited to your environment.
Elegantly suspended within the glass, this Nativity is not just a decoration, but a symbol of faith and protection, a gift of unparalleled emotional and artistic value.
