Este adorable llavero está hecho a mano por Claudio Ojeda en México. El panda alebrijes está tallado en madera de copal y pintado en blanco y negro y una miríada de patrones y formas en rosa y morado. La figura de madera adorna un llavero de acero inoxidable. El artesano firma sus piezas con las iniciales "TC", que representan su inicial "C" precedida por la inicial "T" de su madre Teresita. Claudio aprendió el arte de elaborar alebrijes de su madre.

La tradición del arte popular de los alebrijes se remonta a la década de 1930 en la Ciudad de México. Un hombre llamado Pedro Linares enfermó y en sus sueños febriles vio una tierra extraña poblada de criaturas curiosas: un burro con alas, un gallo con cuernos de toro y un león con cabeza de perro. Todas las bestias gritaban "¡alebrije! ¡alebrije!". Tras su recuperación, Linares comenzó a recrear las criaturas fantásticas que había visto en su sueño. La forma de arte ganó popularidad y los alebrijes ahora están hechos de madera y papel maché.

Wonderful little Panda Friend!”

So glad to see that these are available again. When I got mine, it was the last one. I turned mine into an ornament for my Christmas tree. I purchased several of Claudios key chain figures to turn into ornaments. I can always find room for one more ornament. Amazing artistry! Always pleased with the work by Claudio.

This is now a beautiful Xmas ornament!”

I never intended to use this beautiful piece as a key fob - it is much too precious to be subjected to the wear and tear of being used for keys. The finely detailed and intricate hand painting is of the highest quality. The vibrant colors and the wide eyes make this a stand out piece!
