This Huichol beaded figurine measures:Height: 6.25"Width Side to Side: 1.9"Width Front to Back: 1.5" It's a unique piece of authentic Huichol beaded art. The haute couture style is felt by the artist's use of only three colors and makes it a collectible piece of Mexican folk art. Details:Absolutely handsome, authentic, elegant black pearl color, black and gold pearl color theme glass beaded, Day of the Dead, Catrina Groom (Catrin) clay figurine. Using the traditional Huichol techniques of pressing Campeche wax onto this hand sculpted figurine and adding glass beads, one-by-one, this Day of the Dead Catrina groom depicts the offering message to the Huichol Gods. Dressed in a formal long tail tuxedo with pearl color glass beaded accents, this Catrin portrays a proud and elegant pose. His traditional style jacket has pearl color striped sleeves and on the front, a gold pearl color beaded tie is made with the candle symbol for lighting his way to the ceremony. Also, the Mother of the Corn symbol blesses him with the natural cycle and ability to reproduce and two half Peyote flowers are protected by the respected scorpion against evil spirits and bad luck. His cummerbund symbols protect him with small gold pearl color Peyote flowers, his pant legs have a large ear of corn to nourish his future family and his tuxedo shoes are embellished with sparkly black pearl beads for dancing the night away at his wedding. His head is detachable and swivels from side to side for different poses. We love his hand painted Day of the Dead face and his black tuxedo beaded top hat with gold pearl and black pearl color beaded hat band.The symbols used on his tuxedo make him seem as if he is preparing for his special day in a most elegant way.
