So glad I found this new-to-me Oaxacan artisan on Novica. Thank you Alejandro and Rocio for the adorable treasure. Such amazing painted details! He has joined a carved wood Nativity set from Guatemala. He has many other friends from Oaxaca and Guatemala that were added to the set.
My piece was a gift so it came wrapped. I 100% trust Novica and its artisans. I know for a fact my weightlifter is made to perfection. I've purchsed pieces from "Armando Ramirez" in the past and his craftmanship is exceptional. He is super creative and has a big imagination.
