About this Item

In order to make this cute set of three beaver-shaped figurines, Jose Arriola works ceramic at high temperatures on wood and charcoal-fueled grills, a method that has been used in his native Guatemala since the ancient times of the Mayans. These playful figurines are finally painted by hand and they are all set to bring some color to your spaces.

This was a Christmas gift for a dear friend who loves hummingbirds. She loved them! Each one was unique and together they made a very nice addition to her holiday decor. And the gift wrapping was truly beautiful and made the gift that much more special for my friend. Thank you!
