art sculptures

"One of the customs we have inherited from our Maya ancestors is to give thanks to Ajaw or God every morning when we wake up and before we eat. We do it by crossing our hands over our heart and bowing, and we also use this gesture to greet our elders," says Jose Canil Ramos as he explains his inspiration. "That's how I came up with the idea of crafting a kneeling angel expressing gratitude the same way we do." Canil carves the sculpture from local pinewood and paints it with vivid detail.

This charming wall art captures the heart of Christmas with a wonderfully whimsical nativity scene - Joseph standing alongside Mary, who is tenderly holding baby Jesus under the bright guiding star. The contrast between the hand-molded ceramic figurines and the intentionally distressed wood background creates a delightful rustic aesthetic that brings warmth to any holiday display. Each character showcases remarkable attention to detail in both form and paint work, with subtle touches that reveal the careful handcrafting process. Guatemalan artisan Liz Oliva creates this endearing decorative accent, perfect for adding character to your space and seasonal decorations.

Painted snowy white with a distressed finish, a majestic bouquet makes a lovely addition to any wall. Arti Sharma presents this round relief panel, which is crafted by Indian artisans. They work with quaking aspen wood, diligently carving it by hand to display mesmerizing openwork.

Decorate your spaces with India's classic aura. Made in a distressed finish, Arti Sharma's mango wood decorative box combines white and golden hues in a leafy-patterned carving, reminiscent of the great Bollywood palaces. Accented with a mirror, the piece offers a generous space secured by a classic latch.

A sweet owl with wide eyes inspires this figurine by Duangkamol. Crafted by hand of celadon ceramic, the wise little bird flaunts pale blue feathers.
