Statue of Saint Charbel in hollow resin, 80 cm

Solemn and majestic statue of Saint Charbel Makhlouf, the hermit saint of Lebanon loved and venerated throughout the world for his countless miracles and his profound life of prayer. At an impressive height of 80 cm, this high-quality work is entirely made and painted in Italy, combining the tradition of national sacred craftsmanship with the use of state-of-the-art materials.

The statue is made of hollow resin, an ideal technical choice for large sculptures: it ensures a sturdy structure with thick, stable walls while reducing the overall weight compared with solid resin or plaster, making it easier to move and reducing the risk of breakage.

Saint Charbel is depicted according to the traditional iconography of the Maronite Order: he wears the typical black hooded robe, has a long white beard finely sculpted down to the smallest details, and holds the Sacred Book against his chest with his left hand (featuring a red cover with a raised gold cross). His right hand is raised in an intense gesture of blessing. The expressiveness of the face, the natural folds of the robe, and the stability of the dark base make this item an excellent piece of sacred art for churches, chapels, sanctuaries, parish settings, or large devotional niches in the home.
