THUN Nativity Jubilee 2025: when faith takes shape in the hands of angels

In the silence of an Alpine workshop, among snow-capped mountains and the scent of clay, creatures are born that speak to the heart. It was there that, more than seventy years ago, a countess with a kind heart, Lene Thun, brought to life a little ceramic angel. No words were needed: just a gesture, a curve, a smile shaped over time. It was not a simple object, but a whisper of love, a gentle caress that would travel across the decades, reaching us today. Now, that breath of eternity is renewed with the new, exclusive THUN Nativity Jubilee 2025 collection. At the height of the Jubilee 2025, THUN gives new light to its tradition, creating a limited edition collection that is far more than an artistic gesture: it is a seal of the soul, a memory shared by those who believe in hope.

The figures of the Jubilee Nativity do not speak, but they communicate with profound tenderness: they tell of spiritual journeys, silent promises, a faith that endures through time. What better message for the Jubilee 2025, dedicated to the Pilgrims of Hope, an opportunity for all humanity to pause and remember what truly matters, what unites us, what makes us human?

The Jubilee is a year of grace that opens up to deeper worlds. Everything begins with a solemn act: the opening of the Holy Door. But the true passage takes place elsewhere, in each one’s heart, when we consciously choose to leave the darkness behind, and before us opens a glimmer of light, forgiveness, and rebirth. Along the path of 2025, millions of souls set out on their journey armed only with love and hope. And hope, in order to truly blossom, needs to be protected, nurtured, kept alive in memory. Here is where the new THUN collection comes in: small figures that embody a great truth. That faith can dwell in our homes. That art can become a vehicle of spirituality. That even a nativity scene can contain the mystery of a Holy Year.

The THUN Jubilee Nativity is not merely a collection to be displayed. It is a gift to be cherished, a symbol to be handed down, a faith to be shaped, day after day, with the same patience with which clay is moulded. For some emotions cannot be explained, but they can be touched and held in one’s hands. And in doing so, we learn to recognise that there is something sacred even in the smallest gesture. This is how art safeguards the soul. And this is how, in the hands of those who create and those who contemplate, hope takes shape.

A nativity that welcomes humanity on its journey

The figures of the THUN Jubilee Nativity are not mere statuettes. With their serene faces, outstretched hands, gentle gestures, they embrace all pilgrims in a circle of love. They are the humble Holy Family who welcomes every weary soul, the soft robes of the wise men, the slow steps of the shepherds, the children’s eyes filled with wonder. They are all of humanity walking towards the light, in the shadow of that cross which, in the Jubilee logo, becomes the anchor of salvation. Each figure is shaped and painted by hand, with a care that cannot be improvised but is born of respect, tradition, and love for what is destined to endure. The rounded forms, the peaceful expressions, the delicate colours, tell of a disarming beauty that does not need to astonish, but only to be contemplated. In their little hands they already hold a memory of the Holy Year, a precious memory, because when the year has passed and the solemn chimes have faded, it will be in the silence of our homes that we will once again seek the deeper meaning of what we have lived. Each THUN figure will then be a silent witness, a guardian of emotions, a lamp burning in the days of shadow. For children it will be a story to listen to. For the elderly, the echo of other Jubilees. For everyone, an invitation to pause, to breathe, to believe once more in the possibility of a greater good.

THUN: when art becomes a caress for the soul

In the history of THUN, every gesture carries intention, every detail carries meaning. As with the Guardian Angels, which bear on their backs words as light as the breath of heaven, so too the figures of the jubilee nativity speak a silent language, meant for those who can see with the eyes of the heart. The fold of a cloak, a faint smile, a gaze turned towards infinity: everything tells a story. Ceramic, in the hands of artisans, becomes a writing without words, poetry taking form, a sacred presence in everyday life. A God who does not raise his voice, but reveals himself in the simplest of details, in the everyday, in small gestures, in symbols that speak softly. The Jubilee Nativity collection was created with this same delicacy: designed to endure over time, to inhabit memory and accompany prayer. It speaks to grandparents who remember Jubilees past, to parents who pass on their faith by example, to children taking their first steps into the mystery of hope. It is a nativity that crosses the stages of life, binding generations in a tender, silent, universal embrace.

When beauty becomes a gift: art that heals, art that unites

THUN is beauty, but it does not stop at form. It is also a concrete commitment, a choice of responsibility. Since 2022 it has been a Benefit Corporation, and has made its artistic mission also an act of love. For authentic beauty is never an end in itself. It enters hospitals, reaches those who suffer. Through the Lene Thun Foundation, ceramic therapy workshops bring smiles and strength to children undergoing treatment, transforming fragility into colour, fear into creation. This same vocation also inhabits the Jubilee collection. Every figure is infused with care, inclusion, shared hope. It is more than a ceramic figure: it is a little seed of goodness, ready to blossom in the heart of whoever receives it.
