Angelyn Story

Item #5117

(September, 1990) The name “Angelyn” derives from “angel,” and honors my mother, Angelyn Fetzer Clark. In classical Greek “angel” translated as “messenger of God.” In 1982 I sculpted an Angel to sit on the roof of the stable in the Nativity scene. Angelyn, however, stands atop a shell, reminiscent of the religious statues that decorate cathedrals, shrines and temples. Her wings are actually shells whose common name is “angel wings”. Angelyn may join the Nativity tableau or she may stand alone in any room where you desire a guardian angel.
