Secret keeper Angels - set of 3

The "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" triad has ancient origins — most famously in Japanese folk imagery, where the three wise monkeys carved over the Tōshōgū shrine in Nikkō embodied the maxim — but it has also been absorbed into Western devotional sculpture as a trio of angels who guard secrets. To turn the monkeys into angels is to make explicit the moral framing: discretion is not merely prudence but a small celestial virtue, a way of being a quiet keeper of what does not need to be passed on.
