She bends over the stove, adding mysterious spices and stirring the ingredients slowly. K. Baka is inspired by his rich Ghanaian culture and recreates the preparation of this traditional meal with batik on 100% cotton cloth. This charming wall hanging evokes the warmth and familiarity of the family kitchen.

Elias Garcia

(100)

These adorable dolls are here to bring some love into your home. Elias Garcia arranges them in two interlocking heart-shaped wreaths covered with colorful handloomed fabric and finished with a wooden plaque reading "Connected Heart to Heart." Each doll is handmade by Elias' sister, Aura, and she dresses each one in a unique handwoven dress.

The dolls will impart their wisdom to them while they sleep and in the morning they'll wake up knowing what to do.

Colorful Hummingbird Multi Color Hummingbird Alebrije Sculpture Crafted by Hand

Zeny and Reyna

(334)

Hovering on whirring wings, a whimsical hummingbird seeks out the sweet nectar of flowers. Zeny and Reyna transform found pieces of copal wood into a delightful alebrije painted orange, red, yellow, green, white and black. These fanciful sculptures are a traditional folk art in Oaxaca, once based on twenty totems but today representing all kinds of animals. They take their name from a Caló gypsy word for "something difficult, tangled, confusing or fantastic."

Includes a thread for hanging.

Because each alebrije is individually created work of folk art, shapes will vary slightly. Small parts are separated for shipping to protect from breakage.

Cotton wall mirror, 'Quitapenas Octagon'

Carol

Sep 12, 2020

Beautifully made, worthy of its place on my shelf!

When we do house swaps, it really looks as though I am a world traveler. I have decorated an entire shelf with the set of boxes and worry dolls along with this worry doll mirror. Together the mirror and the worry dolls look just beautiful!!! Of course, the mirror would stand alone all by itself!!!!!

Alebrije sculpture, 'Colorful Hummingbird'

Brodie

Jun 14, 2018

Beautiful and adjustable!

I have seen a great many works of art, and your hummingbirds are some of the prettiest. They make me smile each time I see them, and draw constant compliments. I have the blue, green, purple and "colorful" ones and would love to see more: maybe bright yellow, light blue, lilac, gray, copper? And with beaks at different angles and of different lengths? I have moved the wings so some have big feathers in front, others in back or in the middle. They hang from my office ceiling, all at different heights. Please take care of the copal trees, and thank you for creating such beautiful things!

Another piece I just love in my living room. The colors are vibrant and it is large enough to make a statement. Catches everyone's eye when they enter the room.
