Mexican Alebrijes - Medium Turtle

Crafted from carefully selected copal wood and hand-carved by master artisans, it represents not only a decorative figure but a sacred symbol of longevity, peace, and Mexican cosmogony.

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

• Selection and curing of native copal wood.
• Completely hand-carved
• Sanding and detailed preparation of the surface to ensure a smooth finish.
• Hand-painted.
• Decoration with intricate geometric and organic patterns, deeply inspired by folk art and rich Zapotec traditions.

Due to their 100% handmade nature, each of our alebrijes is a unique piece. No two are alike; the item you purchase will have slight variations in its patterns and brushstrokes that reflect the authenticity, dedicated work, and free creativity of the master artisans who create them.
