Description

The Dolfi Rabbit Sculpture is a small masterpiece of naturalism and grace, masterfully carved by our artisans in Val Gardena. Depicted in a crouched and attentive pose, with one ear perked in vigilant listening, this rabbit embodies the quietness and vivacity of alpine fauna.

Its soft forms are enhanced by realistic coloring: from the reddish-brown coat that fades into darker shades on the back, to the creamy white belly and delicate pink accents on the nose and ears. Each piece is hand-painted with extreme care, giving vitality to the animal's attentive and placid gaze, simulating the texture of the fur through skillful tonal variations.

This art object is available in various sizes between 6 and 15 cm. Following our sculptural tradition, for these smaller sizes, the statue is made from precious maple wood (variant C - colored), known for its fineness and excellent rendering of details. It is also available in the natural maple wood variant (N), which celebrates the intrinsic beauty of the raw wood grain.

Detail & Meaning
Il coniglio, pur non essendo una figura strettamente sacra, possiede un ricco substrato simbolico. È universalmente associato alla Primavera e alla Pasqua, simboleggiando la rinascita, la fertilità e la vitalità effervescente. Nell'arte naturalistica e nella cultura popolare, è anche l'emblema della prudenza e della vigilanza, come suggerito dalla sua posa attenta e dall'orecchio eretto. La scultura Dolfi cattura questa dualità, rappresentando l'animale non solo come un elemento decorativo, ma come un richiamo alla leggerezza della natura e al costante ciclo di rinnovamento della vita.
Story
L'intaglio di figure e animali in legno in Val Gardena risale al XVII secolo. Sebbene inizialmente l'attenzione fosse rivolta quasi esclusivamente all'Arte Sacra (statue di Santi e Crocifissi), con il tempo gli artigiani locali iniziarono a scolpire anche scene di vita quotidiana e rappresentazioni della ricca fauna alpina, come cervi, orsi e animali da fattoria. Queste sculture, tra cui il coniglio, erano richieste sia come complementi d'arredo raffinati che come elementi per arricchire le scene del presepe, integrando la bellezza della natura circostante all'interno delle case. La tradizione Dolfi è custode di quest'arte, preservando le tecniche manuali di intaglio e pittura dettagliata tramandate da generazioni.
