Description

Admire the collected grace of this stylized sculpture which captures the dynamic essence of the dove in the moment of taking flight. The compact and rounded body is embellished with warm shades of brown that elegantly fade towards the reddish chest. The raised wing, painted with vibrant orange-red stripes, gives a sense of lightness and movement, contrasting with the posed and meditative stance.

Crafted with the mastery that distinguishes Val Gardena's handicraft, each piece is a testament to care and dedication. The matte or semi-matte finish, with slight variations in tone, emphasizes the authentic nature and the completely hand-painted workmanship. This delightful creation is carved from precious maple wood, a material selected for its fine grain and ability to retain every detail of the stylization.

Available both in the Colored (C) variant, which enhances the warm and distinctive chromatic palette, and in the Natural Wood (N) finish for those who prefer the tactile simplicity and veins of raw wood. Perfect for enriching your collection or as a decorative element that brings with it the harmony of alpine nature.

Detail & Meaning
1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Dove in flight, maple wood, delicate colors.
2) Religious meaning: The dove symbolizes the Holy Spirit, peace, and purity. The flight represents spiritual elevation and freedom. Maple wood, a natural and valuable material, evokes divine creation and the beauty of nature. Delicate colors recall harmony and celestial serenity.
Story
The dove, a universal symbol of peace, purity, and hope, takes on a profound meaning in the Christian tradition, becoming inextricably linked to the Holy Spirit. Its appearance is central to fundamental biblical episodes: during the Baptism of Jesus, the Holy Spirit descended upon Him "in bodily form, like a dove," confirming His divine nature and the beginning of His mission. Even in the story of the Great Flood, the dove that returns to Noah with an olive branch becomes an emblem of the restored peace between God and humanity, the end of punishment, and the beginning of a new era. Its veneration is manifested in sacred art, where it is often depicted to indicate the divine presence, inspiration, and grace. It is a constant reminder of the presence of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the faithful, of His guidance and His love.
