Gobnait

This elegant handmade angel sculpture is crafted using hardened fabrics and plaster of Paris, creating a beautifully textured and graceful decorative piece. The angel’s flowing gown is formed from delicately layered fabric, stiffened to preserve its soft, natural drape and finished in a warm cream-beige tone that gives the figure a timeless, vintage charm.

Her serene face and hands are sculpted from smooth plaster of Paris, offering a refined, peaceful expression. Light, airy wings in soft ivory complete her ethereal presence, adding depth and delicacy to the overall design.

The angel holds a heart-shaped bauble filled with warm, battery-operated LED lights, casting a golden glow that brings the sculpture to life. The illuminated heart adds a magical, welcoming radiance, making this piece perfect for evening displays or cozy interior settings.

Every detail—from the lace-like texture of the gown to the handcrafted wings and glowing heart—is created by hand, making each angel truly unique. This sculpture is ideal as a heartfelt gift, spiritual décor, or a meaningful centerpiece for any home.
