Our statue of the Virgin Mary is carved from natural marble, featuring a saintly expression and exquisite details. Offer customization options for both size and specific details.
From our marble workshop in Quyang
Choosing a statue of Our Lady is personal. Whether you’re planning a chapel, a prayer garden, or a memorial, we can help you find a design and size that feel right for the space.
We carve these statues by hand from natural marble at Relong. Explore the open hands of Our Lady of Grace, the prayerful Lourdes scene with Bernadette, or our hand-painted Our Lady of Guadalupe. If you have a reference photo, we’d be glad to discuss it with you.
Discuss Your Statue
Made to order by Relong
Start with a design from the collection or send a reference photo. Tell us which features matter to you, from the expression and pose to a rosary, an inscription, or a hand-painted finish.
Share a photo of the site and the height you have in mind. For a church or garden, include the available width and depth, any pedestal you plan to use, and how the statue will reach its final position.
Send your destination country and postal code, along with any required date. We can discuss carving, packing and shipping, and clarify what the delivery quote covers before you order.
A practical measuring guide
Start with where people will see the statue. A figure viewed from the back of a church or across a courtyard has different proportions to consider than one beside a garden bench. A photo of the setting with a tape measure or a person in view helps us understand the scale.
Measure from the floor or ground to the highest point you want the statue to reach. Subtract the height of any pedestal you already have. If the design includes a crown or halo, ask whether it is included in the stated height.
Measure the usable width and depth of the base area. For a niche or alcove, measure the opening and inside depth. For a figure with outstretched hands or a two-figure Lourdes scene, allow room for the full silhouette.
Check gates, doors, steps, and turns along the delivery route. Ask for the sculpture and crate dimensions and weight when available. For a large piece, share these figures with your local installer before preparing the foundation.
A size reference from our collection Our Lady of Grace RMVS-014 is 67 in (170 cm) tall. Use it as a visual reference when discussing your own statue and pedestal height. See the 67-inch example
Choosing for the setting
Consider sightlines from the nave or entrance, lighting on the face, and the height of the pedestal. For an alcove, send its clear dimensions and a photo of the surrounding stonework so we can discuss proportion and finish.
Choose the main viewing angle first, whether that is from a path, patio or prayer bench. Tell us if the site is sheltered or exposed, and whether there is an existing base. For exposed sites, discuss drainage and anchoring with your installer.
Decide whether the statue will be a focal point in a chapel, a courtyard or a shared entrance. Consider how students move through the space, how the statue will be viewed, and how the school will maintain it.
Confirm any site rules on dimensions, foundations and inscriptions before ordering. If the statue will sit beside an existing memorial, share a photo and dimensions so we can discuss how the base and finish will fit.
Material and finish
Natural marble can be carved to show the expression, fingers, rosary and folds of a veil. We can share close-up photos so you can judge those details at the scale of your own design.
Natural white marble varies in tone and veining. It is cut and carved from stone, while cast or reconstituted marble uses crushed stone or marble powder mixed with a binder. Tell us how much visible veining you prefer.
Natural marble can be used indoors and in many outdoor settings. For an exposed site, tell us about the local climate, drainage and maintenance. If you want a painted finish outdoors, discuss the exposure and upkeep before choosing it.
Customer project and workshop examples
A church customer in the United States placed this Our Lady of Lourdes statue in the memorial garden behind the church. The church shared photos of the sculpture in its setting and told us they appreciated the carving details.
Our artists applied the color by brush on this 71-inch marble statue, including the stars on Mary’s mantle and the gold accents. The finish is easier to evaluate in the close-ups of the face and painted details.
View the Guadalupe workshop exampleThis hand-carved garden design is an example of a natural white marble finish. Size, finish and base design can be discussed to suit the intended setting.

Tell us whether you prefer a natural white surface, visible veining, or hand-painted detail. We can discuss stone selection and finish in the context of the design, placement and budget.
We work from existing designs, reference photos or drawings. We can discuss the pose, expression, religious details, pedestal and inscription with you. If your project needs a model, we can share photos for review before carving.
We can share progress and finished photos. Ask for views of the face, hands, back and base so you can review the details that matter to your project.
For large marble pieces, we use reinforced wooden packaging with internal protection suited to the sculpture. Share the site access and delivery postal code so we can clarify freight, delivery point and unloading responsibilities in the quote.

Start with a height that suits your site. We can discuss how to scale the figure, hands, crown and robe while keeping the proportions balanced. Confirm the figure and pedestal dimensions together.
Send the Marian design you prefer, or show us a reference from your parish or collection. We can discuss changes to the expression, pose, garments, rosary and other details that identify the figure.
Tell us if you already have a pedestal or would like a matching base. We can discuss its shape and proportions, as well as an inscription with a dedication, name or date. Share the exact wording when you request the quote.
Choose a natural stone finish or discuss hand-painted color for the robes and details. Share a reference for the palette or ask to see examples, such as our painted Our Lady of Guadalupe.
We hand-carve our statues from natural marble. Cast or reconstituted marble is made from stone particles and a binder. Natural marble varies in tone and veining, so let us know what you’d like for your project.

Height, the design’s carving detail, finish, pedestal, inscriptions and shipping destination all affect the quote. A reference photo and an approximate height are enough to start the conversation.
