Beautiful
This tray is really beautiful. I am very happy with it, but I would caution buyers that the finish is not smooth and glossy, as I thought it would be. It?s more of a porous, Terra cotta feel. I say this because, in spite of its description as suitable for food, microwave safe and dishwasher safe, I can?t imagine doing any of those things. I suspect my daughter will use it more for a catch all tray on her bureau. It?s truly lovely.
Art That Speaks to the Soul
This is my second Catrina sculpture by Luis Morales, and once again, I’m absolutely blown away. La Catrina Violeta is a stunning piece—full of character, color, and extraordinary craftsmanship. The detail and quality are truly unsurpassed. Every element feels intentional and masterfully executed, from the delicate features to the vibrant dress. Luis Morales clearly pours heart and skill into his work, and it shows. This sculpture isn't just a decorative piece; it's a daily source of joy and admiration. I find myself pausing to appreciate it every time I walk by. A true work of art that brings beauty and spirit into my home.
Beautifully made and a pleasure to wear
The gold skull earrings are smaller than expected but are delightful! Very shiny and a beautiful deep gold colour. The small size means people notice the fine gold colour and then are surprised by the skulls! I love that. The skulls are carved with great attention to detail & better looking than in the photo. Asmara Putra is a true artist.
