In the dim light you can see the open mouth, framed by a pair of ruddy cheeks. The mother caresses that little face and, as if wanting to stop that moment of infinite gratitude and sweetness , he goes to his studio and makes a clay model. You are in Bolzano, an unspecified day in 1950, and you have just witnessed the birth of the Angel of Thun .
Like the most beautiful works of art, Thun is born from the inspiration of a moment.
The famous Angel – today known in every corner of the world as the symbol of the South Tyrolean city – was followed by the creation of teddy bears and ladybugs, butterflies, hearts, balloons and flowers, in a succession of collections now inspired by nature , now to traditional values of the Thun house , each characterised by the softness of the shapes and the scrupulous choice of raw materials.
Since then, the creative atelier run first by Lene and Otmar Thun, then by their son and grandson, has continued to create unique collections capable of giving you great emotions.
Thun's creations include gift ideas , beautiful and functional household items, decorations and sculptures that soften and warm the heart. Choose an original gift idea, surprise the one you love with a poem by ceramic that makes his spaces joyful and magical. He will be happy and will remember you.
