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.
I collect chef figurines. This one fit right in and even stands out due to its size. I really like this piece. It is in my curio right in front for all to see.
