Product Description
Octopus Aqua Teal, Ornament, Hand Beaded made in Guatemala
Give this hand-crafted beaded octopus as a gift any time of year for the sea life enthusiast or to remember a trip to Sea World or other aquarium. The arms are flexible yet designed to hold their shape when hanging. The top has a loop for hanging. Also see the link below to add to any sea life, shark or beaded Christmas tree ornaments collections.
This style is made by the more experienced artists in order to make the arms retain their shape as shown when hanging yet flexible to go out flat when sitting on a shelf.

Unlike weaving, which has been practiced in Guatemala since pre-Colombian times, bead work is a relatively new artisan craft in Guatemala.
