Admire the harmony between material contrast and artisanal mastery in this small Owl sculpture. The body, head, and beak have been hand-carved from Maple wood, selected for its fine grain and smooth, polished surface. This luminous base creates a vibrant dialogue with the distinctive elements of the work: the wings and ear tufts, made from pieces of raw natural bark.
The coarse texture and deep grooves of the bark, with its shades of brown and reddish, give the work a rustic and wild charm. Despite its small size of only 5 cm, every detail is carefully crafted to enhance the vigilant and minimalist essence of the owl, making it a unique decorative piece, perfect for adding an authentic touch of nature to your home. The combination of smooth finish and raw materials highlights the profound sculptural skill handed down by the artisans of Val Gardena.
