Encounter sacred art and contemporary design in a single, fluid composition. This Holy Family sculpture embodies intimacy and protection, enclosing Mary, Joseph, and the Child Jesus in a unified embrace. The figures, devoid of facial details so expression rests entirely on the curves of the forms, merge into a shell-like pose that suggests security and a deep family bond.
The preciousness of the work is enhanced by chromatic contrasts: the warm beige of natural wood, the earthy gray-brown outer surfaces, and the golden finish that shines inside the hollow and on the figure of the Child, symbolizing light and sacredness. The harmony between fluid lines and wood grain creates a timeless modern work of art, perfect for any environment.
Crafted with the skill that only Val Gardena artisans can offer, this sculpture is entirely hand-carved from ash wood, selected for its fine grain and durability and suitable for all available sizes from 5 cm to 18 cm. The coloring is applied with water-based colors to highlight the wood grain and give the sculpture a natural, tangible appearance.
