Description

Immerse yourselves in authentic spirituality with this evocative sculpture, a masterpiece of Val Gardena craftsmanship. The figure of the Shepherd with Vase is captured in a moment of humble contemplation. Observe the serene and thoughtful expression of the face, framed by a beard sculpted with meticulous attention to detail.

The body is elegantly draped in a cloak with soft and realistic folds, which flows down to the visible feet. The hands are clasped in a gesture of offering or careful custody, holding a small vase with a finish reminiscent of ancient terracotta.

This statue is carved from precious maple wood, the traditional choice for small and medium-sized works in South Tyrol, renowned for its fineness and ability to retain the most minute carving details. You can choose the finish that best suits your sacred space: the natural version that enhances the wood grains, the colored variant with warm and golden tones, or the sophisticated finish with three shades of brown that gives depth and realism. Each piece is a testament to a centuries-old tradition handed down by local master sculptors.

Detail & Meaning
1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Shepherd with jug, maple wood.
2) Religious meaning: The shepherd symbolizes humility and care, central figures in the Nativity. The jug may recall water, a symbol of purification and life. Maple wood, a natural material, evokes the simplicity and authenticity of the Christmas tradition, with a reference to divine creation.
Story
The shepherd with jug, although not being a canonized saint, embodies the biblical figure of the shepherd, a symbol of humility, care, and dedication. His presence in the nativity scene recalls the simplicity and importance of those who first welcomed the news of Jesus' birth, bringing humble but meaningful gifts. He represents genuine faith and the acceptance of the divine in everyday life, a reminder of the purity of soul and the joy of the Nativity.
