Karoo Angel Janine
Angel Janine is named in honour of Oom Jan (Oom is Afrikaans for “uncle”), a respected elder in Vondeling village and the craft group’s sole male member until his passing in 2014. Her name means gift from God. She wears a black ostrich feather dress, with a wire head crowned with silver beads and handcrafted wire wings embellished with clear beads and sequins.
Janine makes a thoughtful keepsake for someone remembering a loved one, or a birthday or anniversary gift for a friend who loves angels and is looking for something different from the traditional white designs. She also makes a lovely Secret Santa gift or stocking filler, and a striking addition to a Christmas tree.
Please note: Sizes may vary slightly, as each angel is individually handcrafted.
