Blue Cat on a Bench Handcrafted Wood Alebrije Sculpture from Mexico (2 pieces)

A playful little cat has taken over a bench in this unique sculpture from the Zapotec Dream Family Workshop in Mexico. Crafted in the style of alebrijes, a folk art style traditional to Oaxaca, the cat and bench are carved from copal wood and painted in vibrant colours.

The folk art of alebrijes dates back to an old tale from Mexico City. In his fevered dreams, a man called Pedro Linares saw an endless number of curious and fantastic creatures.

Another addition to a critter collection

This artist really captured the essence of the real thing. It looks like one of the chameleons photographed by the biology field researcher who will be delighted when she receives it on her birthday.

A one of a kind gift for a cherished friend.

Unique piece of artwork that was perfect for a dear friend who collects hummingbirds and needed a special addition to them. I am amazed at how wonderfully made this is made and the true appearance of being a bird in flight.

This little cat is just adorable! Right now she is keeping a friend of mine company (a temporary "adoption"). The details are amazing. I check frequently to see what is new from Zeny and Reyna.
