Description

Immerse yourself in the excellence of Val Gardena craftsmanship with this splendid Turkey sculpture, a masterpiece of carving that captures the animal in all its majestic display. The work stands out for its boldly stylized design and vibrant colors, making it a contemporary and fascinating collector's item.

The robust body is finished in an intense emerald green and aqua-blue, which beautifully contrasts with the bright red of the head and neck, symbolizing its vitality. The true visual centerpiece is the tail, a wide-open fan that explodes in a polychrome richness of earthy tones, browns, burnt oranges, and blue-greens, carefully hand-painted to simulate the complex texture of feathers.

This statue is made according to the centuries-old tradition of Ladin sculpture. For all available sizes, from 6 cm up to 15 cm, the carving is exclusively done in precious Maple Wood, known for its fine grain and ability to accommodate such detailed and vibrant coloring. You can choose the colored finish (as shown) or the natural one. Each piece testifies to the unique skill of the sculptors who transform raw material into artistic emotion.

Detail & Meaning
Sebbene in contesti occidentali moderni il tacchino sia spesso associato al Ringraziamento e quindi al tema dell'abbondanza e della celebrazione, nella simbologia animale più antica rappresenta l'autentica esibizione di sé e la ricchezza del creato. La posa eretta con la coda completamente aperta a ventaglio non è solo un atto di corteggiamento o difesa, ma un simbolo di pienezza e maestosità, richiamando l'idea di prosperità e raccolto. La scelta di colori vivaci in questa scultura Val Gardena enfatizza ulteriormente la gioia e l'esuberanza della natura.
Story
L'arte dell'intaglio del legno in Val Gardena, praticata da oltre quattro secoli, è profondamente radicata nella rappresentazione di soggetti religiosi e della vita rurale. Figure di animali come il tacchino, pur non essendo centrali nell'iconografia sacra, sono parte integrante delle tradizioni artigianali che includono la creazione di presepi popolari, dove la fauna domestica e selvatica arricchisce la scena quotidiana. Questo pezzo si inserisce in una linea che fonde l'antica maestria dell'intaglio con sensibilità estetiche più moderne e stilizzate, mantenendo viva la tradizione artigianale ladina.
