Description

Relive the magic of the Dolomites with our Alpine Time-telling House, a miniature masterpiece that combines ancient meteorological tradition with sophisticated Val Gardena carving.

Every detail of this charming alpine chalet is passionately crafted. Observe the complex carved decorations along the pitched roof, finished in a warm red-burgundy that contrasts beautifully with the raw wood of the upper facade. From the arched windows with heart-shaped shutters, to the small front garden with a fir tree and spotted deer, this house is a microcosm of mountain life.

In the center, embedded in the lower facade, a precise thermometer will provide you with the temperature, while at the sides two figures in authentic traditional costumes come to life, ready to dance to the rhythm of changing weather.

The sculpture, measuring 21 cm, is entirely crafted from fine Maple Wood, chosen for its fine grain and ideal resistance to precision carving. The finish is achieved through meticulous hand-painting, which enhances the vibrancy of traditional colors and gives each piece a unique and inimitable character.

Detail & Meaning
Questo manufatto non è solo un oggetto decorativo, ma una celebrazione della vita e dell'architettura alpina. Lo chalet, con i suoi tetti spioventi e le decorazioni elaborate (come i cuori intagliati che richiamano l'amore e l'ospitalità delle valli), simboleggia rifugio e calore domestico. Le due figure in costume, prive di tratti facciali specifici, rappresentano l'uomo e la donna alpini generici, custodi delle tradizioni e in armonia con la natura, pronti a segnalare poeticamente il mutamento delle condizioni atmosferiche, creando un ponte visivo tra l'intimità della casa e il mondo esterno.
Story
La tradizione delle casette segnatempo, o "weather houses", risale al XVIII secolo, diffondendosi in particolare nelle regioni alpine della Germania meridionale e dell'Austria. Sebbene l'aspetto sia quello di una decorazione, il meccanismo interno è quello di un igrometro. Le variazioni di umidità dell'aria causano il movimento di una fibra naturale, che a sua volta muove una delle figure: l'uscita della donna (bel tempo) indica bassa umidità, mentre l'uomo (cattivo tempo) indica alta umidità. Questo tipo di segnatempo è un affascinante esempio di artigianato popolare che unisce scienza empirica e decorazione, rendendolo un elemento iconico della cultura alpina.
