Mexican Alebrijes - Jaguar Alebrije

Made from carefully selected copal wood, hand-carved by master artisans, it represents not only a decorative figure but also the sacred symbol par excellence of power, strength, mysticism, and Mexican cosmology.

Each of our alebrijes is a tribute to patience and collective talent, undergoing a rigorous traditional process that guarantees its beauty and durability:

• Selection and curing of native copal wood.
• Completely hand-carved, capturing the mystical anatomy of a jaguar's head.
• Sanding and detailed preparation of the surface to ensure an impeccable and smooth finish.
• Vibrant, meticulously hand-painted craftsmanship.
• Decoration with intricate geometric and organic patterns, deeply inspired by folk art and rich Zapotec traditions.

Due to its 100% handmade nature, each alebrije is a unique piece. No two are alike; the alebrije you acquire will have its own color palette, patterns, and brushstrokes that reflect the authenticity, dedicated work, and free creativity of the master artisans who create it.

Alebrije dimensions: 5.5 x 5 x 7 cm
