Hand Cut Oaxacan Tin Magnets, Set of 4 Skull & Cross Bone Magnets, Mexican Folk Art 1.75"x1.75"
This skull and crossbones Magnet is a classic Day Of The Dead or Halloween decoration. It is painted on both sides in white and black. Made in Oaxaca.In southern Mexico, the spirits of the dead come back to visit, from noontime on October 31 through November 2. It is a time of rituals and prayer, but also of personal celebration as people "catch up" with their deceased loved ones. Many believers keep all-night vigils in Oaxaca's cemeteries, which are transformed into a wonderland of twinkling candles, yellow marigolds, and smoking incense.
