Monochrome Maria Doll Ceramic Maria Doll Sculpture from Mexico

Graciela Orozco

(10)

This adorable doll will make a beautiful gift for newborns, kids, and adults alike. Graciela Orozco takes inspiration from traditional Mexican rag dolls - known as Maria dolls - to create this charming ceramic sculpture.

The charming doll originated in Mexico City when many Otomi and Mazahua people migrated to the capital in the 1970s. Due to their unique traditional clothing, the women became known as "Marias." An educational program was established for them and artist Diego Rivera's daughter, Guadalupe Rivera Marin, encouraged crafting these popular rag dolls as a way to generate income in the 1980s. Artisan women took the idea home to their Mazahua and Otomi towns and the dolls became popular throughout Mexico and abroad.

Great craftsmanship and suprisingly durable!

Beautiful gourd ornaments. The mate gourds have quite hard and thick shells. I am sure they will last over 100 years, making them a family heirloom!

Decoupage jewelry box, 'Celebrating the Day of the Dead'

Beautiful little box

Beautifully made box. I wanted a small box that I could place miscellaneous small items in at my desk and this works perfectly. The lid and drawer open and close easily, but the best part is every time I look at it I smile. What's better than seeing a skeleton drinking a bottle of tequila. This is another artist that I plan on following.
