Artisan Catrin Artisan Ceramic Statuette from Mexico

Jorge Escamilla

(2)

Life imitates art, as is evident in this terrific sculpture from Mexico's Jorge Escamilla. The ceramic and wire catrin figure is clad in a work apron as he crafts his own catrina from clay. Escamilla pays tribute to José Guadalupe Posada with his delightful statuette.
The original "La Calavera Catrina" was a zinc etching created by the artist José Guadalupe Posada in Mexico around 1910. Posada created the character, a female skeleton with an elegant hat, as a satirical portrait to lampoon Mexican natives who aspired to European style and denied their own heritage. The catrina has since become an emblem of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration and a popular folk art subject.

Audacious Hen Handmade Hen Alebrije Sculpture

Jesus and Roxana Hernandez

(98)

This brightly colored hen is the work of artisans Jesus and Roxana Hernandez in Mexico, who preserve the distinctly Oaxacan folk art form of alebrijes. The sculpture is carved by hand from copal wood before being carefully painted with a dizzying array of colorful motifs.

The folk art tradition of alebrijes dates back to the 1930's in Mexico City. A man named Pedro Linares was taken ill, and in his fevered dreams he saw a strange land populated with curious creatures--a donkey with wings, a rooster with bull's horns, and a lion with the head of a dog. The beasts all ran at him, shouting the nonsense word,"alebrije! alebrije!". Upon his recovery, Linares began recreating the fantastical creatures he had seen in his dream in papier mache. The art form gained popularity, and alebrijes are now made of wood as well as papier mache.

Ceramic wall planter, 'Guanajuato Garden'

beautiful, well done, visually striking

A beautiful ceramic planter which design and color are striking and basically a piece of art. I have flowering plants on both of them. At first, I was apprehensive about buying ceramic online due to the extremely delicate nature of it, but upon unpacking I realize that the packaging was so top notch that it would take more than just regular shipping roughness to break the planters. It was so professionally well done.

I love these pots!

I now have several of these pots in different designs and sizes, and I absolutely love them. When people come to my house they always comment on them, too. So beautiful and well made. I like that they have a drain hole, too. Very happy with this purchase!
