This wonderfully whimsical sculpture depicts a common mode of transport in Peru--the motorcycle taxi. Piled high with merchandise, the taxi heads for the market. Andean artisan Juan Carlos Diaz crafts the charming sculpture from ceramic and paints it by hand with impressive detail.

"Motorcycle Taxi in Blue"
Have purchased three of these fabulous sculptures. Really so very like a 3-D cartoon one might see in the “New Yorker.” A terrific find by a very talented artisan.

"Even more lovely in real life"
I put this on my mantle and have never rotated it out of display. I love it too much. I filled the inside with a sting of colored battery operated lights. Its perfectly magical at night.

"Love this"
I bought this bull and a brown one. They look really good together and it brings me joy to see them when I walk through the room. Which is what you want from a collectible. Glad I purchased them both as they complement each other so well.
