This stunning handcrafted alebrije owl figurine is a true masterpiece, painted in vibrant shades of turquoise, russet, and pastel pink. Artisans Jesus and Roxana Hernandez meticulously craft each piece from copal wood, adorning it with intricate designs that showcase the essence of Oaxacan art.
The tradition of alebrijes began with the visionary Pedro Linares, who, after an illness-induced coma, dreamt of fantastical creatures in a mystical forest. Inspired by this dream, Linares created colorful figures that captivated the hearts of many. Today, artisans in Oaxaca continue this legacy, producing artistic owl figurines for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
This unique owl decor not only enhances your home but also represents a rich cultural heritage. With dimensions of 3.9 in. H x 3 in. W x 2.2 in. D, it makes a perfect addition to any collection or a thoughtful gift for someone special.
