Flotando con sus alas zumbando, un colibrí caprichoso busca el dulce néctar de las flores. Zeny and Reyna transforma piezas de madera de copal encontradas en un delicioso 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 variarán ligeramente.

“Magical little hummingbird”

This carved and hand-painted hummingbird captures the essence of these little birds, always on the move. The detail bringing out the visual texture of the feathers and the eyes is beautiful I bought this piece to complement the yellow and green hummingbird also made by Zeny and Reyna. They make quite the pair!

“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.
