"This is the beft gift I got for my mom so far!"
We got thid image cause we just came from a trip to Guatemala and El Salvador, as my Grandmother was half Salvadoran and half Guatemalan and I felt in Love with Antigua. I am now renovating the house with art and colors inspired on Antigua and getting this Amazing sculpture for mom was the best idea! We love it because my maternal grandfather and uncle who are not with us were named after The Archangel Raphael, so from now on we will treasure this piece for all the coming generations. Thank you and keep up the good work of beautiful art pieces!
