Sitting Shepherd - Maple Wood

Let yourselves be enchanted by the serenity and simplicity of this seated Shepherd Boy, a sacred piece of craftsmanship that adds depth and authenticity to your Nativity scene. The sculpture depicts a young traveler or shepherd in a moment of quietude and deep reflection.

The pose, with an upright torso and relaxed leg, is both dynamic and peaceful, enriched by visual details of extraordinary precision. Admire the accurate rendition of the folds of the garments, from the cream-colored tunic to the grey-green trousers, which suggest softness and movement. The finish, opaque and slightly satin, uses warm and natural tones (brown, brick red) that give the figure a lived-in and realistic look, typical of high-quality wood painting.

Each Shepherd Boy is masterfully and devotedly hand-carved by the artisans of Val Gardena. For the available sizes (from 6 cm to 15 cm), the work is made exclusively from precious Maple Wood, chosen for its fine grain that allows for the carving of the smallest details, such as the golden curls and the serene expression of the face. It is available in colored (C), natural (N) or with elegant three shades of brown painting (3G) finishes, to perfectly adapt to any Nativity composition.
