The statue of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux captures the essence of the "little way" in a work of refined sacred sculpture. The figure, enveloped in a religious habit with flowing and defined folds, radiates a warm ocher hue that intensifies into deep browns, balanced by the ivory whiteness of the stylized face and base.
At the center of the composition, the Saint devoutly holds her iconic symbols: a small natural wood crucifix, an emblem of the Passion, and a delicate bouquet of soft pink roses, a harbinger of the promised shower of graces. A reddish-brown rosary hangs from her hands, adding a detail of deep spirituality.
Crafted with the mastery that distinguishes the artisans of Val Gardena, this sculpture offers several valuable options. For smaller sizes, up to 56 cm, the material used is precious maple wood, ideal for carving minute details. For sizes exceeding 56 cm, linden wood is used, known for its stability and workability in large pieces. The exclusive and precious version in authentic Italian olive wood is also available, prized for its unique grain.
Each statue is finished with artisanal care, with a painting that enhances the soft texture of the wood, transforming faith into a tactile and visual emotion.
