Finding inspiration in the world around them, Pablo and Lucy Mendez of Mexico celebrate the beauty of a butterfly. They handcraft the creature from copal wood in the style of alebrije sculptures, including several pieces that assemble together. A vibrant hand-painted design finishes this original work of folk art. Small parts are separated for shipping to protect from breakage.

"Absolutely perfect addition to my lighted branch tree"
I bought a lighted bare branch tree from a major retailer this Christmas. This beautiful ornament hangs perfectly and can be seen all the way around. It is such a colorful addition to this new tree. I hope to buy more next holiday season.
