Description

Admire the artisanal craftsmanship of this stylized Dove, a small and precious messenger of serenity captured in a pose of watchful rest. Earthy shades of brown, beige, and grayish-purple define the texture of its feathers, made vibrant by the skilled brushstrokes of our artists. Its bright orange beak and attentive eyes create a focal point of life, giving the sculpture a tranquil yet alert expression.

Each sculpture is a unique piece, entirely hand-carved and finished by the expert artisans of Val Gardena, guardians of a centuries-old tradition. Due to its compact size (available from 6 cm to 14 cm), this Celestial Messenger is crafted from fine maple wood, chosen for its fine grain that allows for exceptional detail definition, enhancing the layered effect of the feathers. Choose between the finely hand-painted variations (C, C2) or the purity of Natural Maple Wood (N) to enrich your nativity scene or collection.

Detail & Meaning
1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Dove, closed wings, serene gaze.
2) Religious meaning: The Dove is a universal symbol of peace, purity, and the Holy Spirit. The closed wings and serene gaze evoke divine stillness and God's pacifying presence.
Story
The dove, a universal symbol of peace and hope, is deeply rooted in Christian tradition. It represents the Holy Spirit, which descended upon Jesus at his baptism, and the message of reconciliation after the Great Flood, when a dove returned to Noah with an olive branch. Although it is not associated with a specific saint, its symbolism is intrinsically linked to the figure of Christ and the divine promise of salvation and harmony, making it a powerful emblem of faith and serenity in every devotional context.
