Description

Sacred Heart of Mary -Wood-170cm

Wood Sculpture, Masters of Val Gardena, Early 20th Century

Authentic wood carving by the master carvers of Val Gardena, made in the early 1900s. A work pre-pantograph, then entirely hand carved, according to the finest Alpine tradition.

The statue presents a original gold leaf decoration, applied with a mission technique and then patinated to achieve a warm, soft and deeply luminous effect. The details of the mantle and robes reveal meticulous workmanship: golden floral motifs, finely chiseled beading, and a color rendering typical of Gardena workshops of the time.

The delicately modeled face retains the serene and contemplative expression characteristic of early 20th-century sacred sculpture. The Immaculate Heart is rendered with particular care: Golden flames, finely crafted crown and lacquered tones that enhance its devotional centrality.

Being a authentic antique piece, shows the natural signs of time, which do not constitute defects but They increase its historical and collector value. Each imperfection tells its own story and testifies to the handwork of the time.
