"Iguanas are creatures of the sun, so when we decorated this alebrije we thought of the sun welcoming the rainbow," confide Zeny and Reyna. Carved from a single piece of copal wood, the sculpture is painted by hand using the tip of a maguey leaf.

"Prominent fixture in my alebreje menagerie."
Beautiful, colorful, unique, and incredibly priced for such a time and labor intensive work of art. It is prominently displayed among many other animals in my alebreje menagerie.

"Absolutely stunning piece!"
Thank you Zeny and Reyna for this amazing Iguana! I know there is already a review or testimonial for this piece as I bought it several years ago as a for my son. Zenys and Reynas work it incredible - magical! I know my son will cherish it for many years. It hangs on his wall.

"Wow! Such amazing detials!"
I knew as soon as I saw this treasure I had to buy it! -- Painted with the wisdom of turtles (just one symbolism for turtles). Now they also have available a blue bull with fish! So tempting! The painting details and carving of the bull are just incredible. Perfection! I am always in awe when I receive these pieces from Zeny and Reyna. So happy to see that more of their artworks are available here on Novica.
