ATL Collectibles & Custom Framing gathers our Black angel figurines in one collection: guardian angels, Bible angels, armor angels and angels of inspiration. Each African American angel is made to bless a home, honor a loved one or mark a new beginning.
Why Black angel figurines matter to families
An angel that looks like the family receiving it carries more meaning than a generic statue. African American angel figurines are given at funerals, christenings, new homes and hard seasons, and they stay on a shelf for decades as a reminder of the person who gave them.

An angel memorial gift that lasts
An angel memorial gift works best paired with something personal. Many families place the angel beside a framed photo of the person being remembered; our [custom framing] team can frame that photo to match.
Displaying an angel at home
Angels are usually placed where the family gathers or prays: a mantel, an entry table, a bedside shelf. Give the figurine its own space rather than crowding it among other objects, and keep it at eye level so its face and hands are seen. In a memorial display, a small framed photo and a candle beside the angel make a quiet, lasting tribute.
Caring for an angel figurine
Dust with a soft dry brush, keep the piece out of direct sun and away from shelves that get bumped. Keep the box: it protects the figurine in a move and matters if the piece is ever resold.
