Con lápiz labial rojo brillante, un gato azul caprichoso levanta la cola a modo de saludo. Zeny y Reyna transforman piezas de madera de copal encontradas en una delicia Alebrije. Estas fantásticas esculturas son un arte popular tradicional en Oaxaca, que alguna vez se basaron en veinte tótems pero que hoy representan todo tipo de animales. Toman su nombre de una palabra gitana Calo que significa "algo difícil, enredado, confuso o fantástico".

Debido a que cada alebrije es una obra de arte popular creada individualmente, las formas pueden variar ligeramente. Las piezas pequeñas se separan para el envío para protegerlas de roturas.

“Another amazing work by Zeny and Reyna”

This little cat is just adorable! Right now she is keeping a friend of mine company (a temporary adoption). The details are amazing. I check frequently to see what is new from Zeny and Reyna.

“Love my new Zeny and Reyna hummingbird!”

This will be a Christmas gift for me -- a gift from my cat (my cats have always known exactly what I want). Zenys and Reynas pieces are incredible - Exquisite painted details. I have purchased many for myself and many to give as gifts.
