Description

Bring the joy and dynamism of winter slopes to your tree with this refined flat ornament. Capturing the essence of the holiday, the wooden sculpture depicts a cheerful elf in full skiing action, soaring towards a majestic stylized Christmas tree, all carved from a single piece.

Val Gardena craftsmanship emerges in the two-dimensional processing and finishes: the wood, left in its natural light and matte color, is embellished with engraved strokes that outline the elf's smiling expression and the details of his dynamic clothing. The Fir tree is elegantly decorated with three small, brilliant red faceted stones, which add a precious bright spot. A thin, braided golden cord completes the work, perfect for hanging the ornament.

This ornament, available in a 7 cm size, is expertly crafted using precious maple wood, a material chosen for its fine and compact grain, ideal for capturing every detail of the carving and ensuring a durable and high-quality handcrafted decorative item.

Detail & Meaning
The goblin, or mountain gnome, is a figure deeply rooted in alpine traditions, a symbol of joy, luck, and the guardian of nature's secrets. In this ornament, its dynamic pose and cheerful expression capture the lively, carefree spirit of the winter season and outdoor sports. Carved alongside the Christmas tree, the evergreen fir, representing eternal life and hope, the goblin becomes a wish for prosperity and happiness for the home during the holidays, infusing energy and good cheer.
Story
The art of carving in Val Gardena, where this ornament originates, boasts a centuries-old history that dates back to the 17th century. Initially linked to the production of sacred art, the craft evolved to include folkloric subjects and high-quality Christmas decorations. Figures like elves and gnomes, while not strictly religious, were incorporated into the alpine artisan repertoire, inspired by Northern European folklore, where they assisted Santa Claus or were benevolent spirits who took care of the home and family, symbolizing the magic of Christmas.
