Product Description
Handmade Vintage Oaxacan Clay Sculpture, Praising Angel with Bible, Religious Mexican Decor
Size: 3.5"x5.5"x3.5"
The Aguilar family is from a rural town in Oaxaca Mexico named Ocotlan de Morelos. This town was known for producing mostly utilitarian items until Isaura Alcantara Diaz and her husband, Jesus Aguila Revilla, started creating decorative figures. The couple taught their five daughters who then have continued teaching the following two generations. The sisters have become famous for their painted ceramic figures, each with a distinctive style.
This particular sculpture depicts an angel praising that was originally part of a nativity set.
