DRAGON Alebrije Hand Carved Oaxacan Folk Art Oaxaca Mexico

Description

Fabulous Standing Dragon!
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 has an incredible curled tail and removable pieces.  It  stands approximately 8" tall, 9" long  and 7 1/2" wide. This great piece  would be a wonderful addition to any collection.
