Provence Saint Mary figurine

Superb figurine of the Virgin Mary kneeling, crafted in the purest provencal tradition of Christmas cribs.

Entirely handcrafted in an art workshop in Marseille, this provencal Virgin Mary figurine perfectly illustrates the authenticity and ancestral know-how of provencal figurine makers. Every detail has been meticulously crafted: the delicate features of the face and the humble, contemplative posture convey the grace, gentleness and spiritual fervour characteristic of the Virgin Mary.

Made from carefully selected clay, this provencal Virgin Mary figurine in soft tones evokes the warmth of the provencal earth and the Marian blue, symbol of the Virgin Mary.

In her kneeling posture, the Virgin Mary expresses both devotion and serenity, bringing a deep sense of peace and contemplation to your Christmas nativity scene. A true symbol of the Christmas crib in Provence, this handcrafted Virgin figurine blends perfectly with the other characters of the Nativity scene: the Baby Jesus and Saint Joseph to form the Holy Family. This Virgin Mary figurine is unique, the result of entirely manual work, reflecting a heritage passed down through generations.
