Mexican tradition inspires a superb creation by Ana Maria Gonzalez, who proudly embellishes this jewellery box with cards from the famous Loteria, a game similar to bingo. With a strong pine wood structure that includes three compartments, the box carries a piece of the artist's culture thanks to its decoupage design, perfect for a vintage ambiance.

Ana Maria Gonzalez in Mexico creates this fun jewelry chest, employing the decoupage technique. A skeletal bride and groom are depicted on the top and front of the pinewood box, in homage to José Guadalupe Posada's La Calavera Catrina. The small chest features two drawers for storing small treasures.

The original "La Calavera Catrina" was a zinc etching created by the artist José Guadalupe Posada in Mexico around 1910. Posada created the character, a female skeleton with an elegant hat, as a satirical portrait of Mexican natives who aspired to European style and denied their own heritage. The catrina has since become an emblem of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration and a popular folk art subject.

Standing atop brass feet, this distressed pinewood decorative box is created by Mexican artisan Ana Maria Gonzalez. She gives the decorative box a chest-style appearance, decorated in decoupage with the image of a colorful skeleton that wears a dapper hat. Bringing the spirit of Day of the Dead to your home, this decorative box opens to a single-compartment interior with a mirror on the inside of the lid.
