Discover the sublime sculpture of the Angel Gloria, a masterpiece of spirituality and artisanal skill born from the expert hands of our Val Gardena sculptors. This ethereal figure stands out for its contemplative pose, head delicately reclined, and an expression of profound peace. The angel features a discreet metal hook hidden at the back, allowing it to be easily hung in the nativity crib; light and well-balanced, it remains firmly in place without compromising the artisanal finishes.
The drapery of the robe, an elegant blue-grey with a patinated finish that defines its deep folds, lends depth and sculptural realism. Points of light in bright gold-leaf imitation stand out on the large wings and on the two small stars on the garment, creating a vibrant and sacred contrast. Its clasped hands delicately hold the scroll bearing the announcement "IN EXC LSIS DEO", the key words of "Gloria in excelsis Deo".
True to the centuries-old Dolfi tradition, all variants of this angel, available in sizes from 6 cm to 28 cm, are crafted from fine maple wood. You can choose from the natural finish, the classic hand-painted version, or the version with three shades of brown to perfectly integrate it into your Nativity scene or as a precious devotional object.
