Petite San Rafael Petzal Guatemalan Hand-Painted Angel-Themed Ceramic Sculpture

Monica de Castellanos' collection of ceramic sculptures is a true reflection of her inspiration drawn from angels and the rich culture of her native Guatemala. Each piece is carefully painted by hand and showcases the traditional attire worn by women in different regions of her country. This time she depicts the costume of San Rafael Petzal with a striking red blouse or hüipil adorned with geometric patterns and paired with a burgundy skirt featuring colorful horizontal and vertical stripes. The golden harp in the angel's hands and the exquisite ivory wings exude pure grace while the sculpture's varnish finish ensures longevity and protection.
