Christmas Novelty 2018. Red Robe.
A lifetime of peace begins with a single light. Celebrate the season with the Heavenly Angel in Red (HUM 21/III), a stunning Christmas Novelty that brings bold, festive warmth to a timeless classic. Known as the "Keeper of Light," the Heavenly Angel has been a cherished symbol of hope since 1935. This iconic figure was masterfully redesigned by Marion Huschka in 2016 and now appears in a magnificent, hand-painted red robe—perfectly capturing the vibrant spirit of the holidays.
This piece is a celebration of significant scale and luminous tradition. Standing as a large-scale figure, the angel carefully guards his candlelight, representing protection and the enduring light of faith. Handcrafted in Rödental, Germany, the rich crimson glaze offers a striking and sophisticated contrast to traditional pastel styles. Whether placed as a majestic sentinel on your holiday mantle or as the heart of a spiritual collection, this angel is a powerful testament to the artistry of the modern M.I. Hummel era.
Whether you are seeking to build a colorful celestial choir or a dedicated holiday display, this angel pairs beautifully with these select pieces:
-
Heavenly Angel in Blue (HUM 21/III): The perfect aesthetic counterpart, offering a classic cool-toned balance to the vibrant warmth of the red robe.
-
Christmas Angel (HUM 301 2/0): Combine the "Keeper of Light" with the functional charm of the treat-bearing Christmas Angel for a complete holiday scene.
