Pair of Antique Carved Wooden Angel Sculptures (Male & Female) – Rare Praying Figures

A truly exquisite and rare pair, these antique angel sculptures are carved from wood and feature a kneeling male and female angel, hands clasped in prayer, eyes gently cast down in reverence. Their elongated forms, finely chiseled facial features, and beautifully detailed wings evoke a serene, spiritual presence that feels both sacred and sculptural.

Likely originating from a church or private chapel, these figures exhibit characteristics of 18th to early 19th-century ecclesiastical art. Their original finishes have gracefully aged over time, revealing a rich, warm patina. The careful carving of each feather and fold of drapery speaks to the artisan’s deep skill and devotion.

Each angel is mounted on an integral wooden plinth, lending stability and a sense of rooted grandeur. Their proportions and presence make them ideal statement pieces for a grand entryway, flanking a fireplace, or anchoring a sacred space. Perfect for collectors of religious antiques or anyone drawn to soulful, one-of-a-kind pieces with historic provenance.
