Details

A beautiful moth spreads its splendid beige and brown wings to take flight. Guatemalan artisan Pedro Apop crafts a detailed ceramic sculpture by hand, inspired by his love for nature. He adds the motifs to the creature using paint that he carefully mixes himself in an effort to closely approximate the natural colors of the false sphinx moth. A hook at the back permits wall display, or the sculpture can pose on a tabletop.
