DRAGON Alebrije Hand Carved Folk Art Oaxaca Mexico

Description

GREAT STANDING  DRAGON ALEBRIJE
Alebrijes are Mexico's fantastic, imaginative figures - they are often called "creatures of the dreams and the imagination".  They are hand-carved and hand-painted  of copal wood in Central Mexico where I travel to choose interesting , high quality pieces at  economical prices.  This great dragon is deep wine with brilliant orange flowers. The pieces are removable. This dragon stands approximately 6" tall, 8" long  and 7" wide. This great piece  would be a wonderful addition to any collection.
