Winged Cherub Musician Putto in Maple Wood from Val Gardena

Let yourself be enveloped by the sweet silent melody of this Cherub Musician Putto, a sculpture that captures the celestial joy and artisan mastery of Val Gardena. This winged angel is caught in the act of playing his string instrument, similar to a lute or mandolin, with an ethereal grace and lightness reflected in his almost dancing pose.

Every detail has been finely hand-carved by our artisans: from the voluminous curls framing the serene face, to the delicate fingers touching the imaginary strings. The wings are a triumph of light and preciousness, covered with a brilliant golden finish that evokes the luminosity of gold leaf, beautifully contrasting with the opaque flesh-colored paint, brought to life by pink and blue shades on the eyes.

According to the Dolfi sculptural tradition and given the availability in different sizes (from 5 cm to 24 cm), the entire work is carved from precious Maple Wood, renowned for its compactness and ability to retain the smallest details. You can choose the finish that best enhances the work: the Colored (C) variant which accentuates its pictorial vivacity, Natural Wood (N) to appreciate the wood grain, or the elegant three-shade brown finish (3G).
