Description
Angel Ronelle’s name means joyful and strong. Her cream feather dress symbolises purity and peace, and her ivory-coloured wire head is crowned with a delicate beaded halo. The looped wire wings, embellished with silver-lined beads, bring a touch of sophistication and grace.
The Collection
Ronelle is a treasured member of the Aarde range, a collection that celebrates nature and Mother Earth. The word “Aarde” means earth in Afrikaans, reflecting the collection’s roots in the natural world. The Aarde angels, including Gugu, Rose, and Natania, form a small but special group, each angel individual and beautiful in its own way.
Gift and Decoration
Consider presenting Angel Ronelle as a token of gratitude to your teacher, mentor, or anyone who has significantly influenced your life. This can be an excellent gift for occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, or even as an unexpected surprise. During the festive season, it can serve as a charming decoration for your Christmas tree. Alternatively, you could craft a nursery mobile ring to hang these angel ornaments above your baby’s crib, creating a tranquil and delightful ambiance for your little one.
The Makers
The Karoo Angels story began in 2006 in Vondeling, a remote village in the Karoo semi-desert of South Africa. What started as a small craft project for community upliftment soon grew into something much larger. The project 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.
Handcrafted Quality
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, making it a truly exceptional piece of art.
