Saint Dorothy Statue in Hand-Carved Wood - Val Gardena Crafts

Hand-carved and hand-painted in Val Gardena by skilled artisans, each Saint Dorothy is unique and produced according to the region’s long sculptural tradition.

She wears a dark teal dress, richly draped and accented with extensive gold-leaf gilding on the crown, mantle edges and other symbolic details, creating a vivid contrast with the natural skin tones and the flowers. Her serene, slightly tilted gaze conveys contemplative calm.

Carved in maple for sizes up to 56 cm and in linden wood for larger dimensions, the statue combines traditional materials and techniques for lasting fidelity and fine detail.
