Known as el torito de Pucará, this handsome bull is dressed to initiate the branding ceremonies in Pucará (Puno) and ensure the animals will be fertile. It is also believed that the bull guards families and households. Dionisio Rojas preserves this millenary tradition with this ceramic figurine, which he paints with festive detail against a body of blue.

First, this Pucara Bull looks huge; so much bigger and taller than I expected. He is very, very nicely painted in a lovely color of blue and I really will enjoy owning a fabled Pucara Bull. I especially like the manner in which Mr. Rojas has painted it. So many of the other Pucara Bulls are over-painted and garish. This Bull is perfect, very big and dignified. Well done Mr. Rojas, and thank you.

I am so happy with this beautiful Nativity candle holder from one of my favorite Novica artists, Dionisio Rojas! It arrived in perfect condition, and is even prettier than the picture.
