Nice size, beautifully painted. It is exactly what I wanted -- will work perfectly in my living room to add a touch of whimsy in a rather staid and serious bookcase.
This substantial little turtle is more a fine example of alebrije without having the slightly menacing look of many of them. the detail is amazing, and the expression on its face is wonderful - both knowing and olayful. The colors fit well with current decor while retaining a folk art feel.
