Let yourself be captivated by the intense and penetrating gaze of this little Owl, a masterpiece of wood carving from Val Gardena. Sitting upright on a base that imitates tree bark, the animal is a sublime example of Dolfi craftsmanship, where every detail is cared for with passion and meticulousness.
Its stylized feathers on the chest, made vibrant by a symphony of brown, orange, and cream tones, are embellished with visible brushstrokes that enhance its material texture. The large, bright orange eyes with black pupils give it an attentive, almost frowning expression, full of mystery and ancestral wisdom.
This fascinating bird is sculpted entirely in maple wood, the preferred choice of master artisans in Val Gardena for small and medium-sized sculptures. The compactness of this wood allows for exceptional sculptural definition.
The sculpture is available in two finishes that enhance its uniqueness: the "oil-painted" version – where our artists hand-apply pigments with sartorial precision – and the "natural" version, which celebrates the intrinsic grain of the wood. A piece of nature and art, ready to watch over your home.
