The verdigris turquoise standing wooden angels are a striking showcase of exceptional hand-carving and layered craftsmanship. Every surface of these sculptures has been thoughtfully worked, reflecting the patience and skill of master artisans.
The facial features are delicately carved with calm, symmetrical expressions—softly arched brows, defined eyes, and gently contoured lips—bringing a serene, almost living presence to the figures. The headdresses and hair display rhythmic curls and ornamental bands, each strand and motif carved individually rather than molded, adding depth and authenticity.
The torso and posture are sculpted with anatomical sensitivity, capturing balance and grace in a classical standing stance. Intricate jewellery detailing—necklaces, armlets, waistbands, and anklets—features layered beads, ridges, and miniature motifs, all carved in relief to create rich texture.
The wings are a highlight of the carving: each feather is distinctly defined, arranged in flowing tiers that convey movement and strength. The carving transitions seamlessly from broad feather forms to fine etched lines, demonstrating advanced control over depth and proportion.
Finished with a verdigris turquoise patina accented by warm antique gold highlights, the carving details are further enhanced, allowing shadows to settle into recesses and bring out the sculpture’s complexity.
Overall, these angels are not merely decorative pieces—they are sculptural works where carving, form, and finish come together, making them ideal statement guardians for luxury interiors, curated collections, and heritage-inspired spaces.
