Description
Angel Maria, meaning the wished for, is one of the four small angels in the Friendship range. She features a felted Merino wool head adorned with a rose-gold beaded halo. She wears a delicate white ostrich feather dress and has intricately crocheted 3D wings made from rose-gold coloured wire. Perfect for Easter and Christmas, Angel Maria can be a thoughtful gift for loved ones or can provide comfort and solace during difficult times, making them a heartfelt sympathy gift.
The Friendship range consists of Angels Maria, Marlene, Olaf and Rafiki.
The Karoo Angels story began in 2006 in Vondeling, a remote village in the Karoo semi-desert of South Africa. Initially a small craft project for community upliftment, it provided training to local artisans, leading to the creation of unique, handcrafted angels from wire, beads, wool and ostrich feathers. The project expanded to include Rietbron, forming the Karoo Angels brand. These angels have gained international recognition, bringing pride and income to the once-forgotten villages.
The sizes of the Karoo Angels can vary, as each one is handcrafted. This natural variation results from the artisanal process and the use of non-standardised ostrich feathers. Each angel’s individuality adds to its charm and authenticity.
