Description: Shipped fast free insured from Texas This amazing carved wood, genuine art piece was made in Guerrero, Mexico. It has intricate detail in the carving, the hand-painted artwork, the real goat horns, and even a rattle inside, which is a tradition of Guerrero wood carvers to place in these devil masks. A very special piece for your Mexican folk art collection. It's size is about 10" x 9" X 5" off the wall. Horns are about 4 1/4Inches Way down in the southern mountains of Guerrero, Mexico, up high mountain roads, are the indigenous group (Nahua) that produce these beautiful solid carved wood pieces of art. They are generally carved by men using the Tzampamitla tree and then whimsically detailed by the women in rich jewel tones (using translucent aniline dyes or paints) with eyes that seem to come alive. These hard to travel to villages and pueblitos include Maravatio, Tlamacazapa, Ahueuepan, San Francisco Ozomatlan, and San Critobal. Rarely will an importer travel to these remote villages with all the current unrest, so we must wait for a daring native sole to drive up to Tonala or the border with these gorgeous works of art. These folk art pieces are getting harder and harder to come by, and are highly collectible. FREE SHIPPING FOR CONTINENT USA ONLY
