I love the way the purchases are so carefully packed--the ears and the stalks packaged separately to avoid breaking. This little guy is a real gem and fits perfectly into an illustration of a story I wrote.
I do appreciate these artists who create the Oaxacan detail techniques of painting and carving. This is a great example of how that is done. I will look forward to collecting more from these artisans!
I have not yet given this gift as it is a birthday gift to be given in the month of December.
I can absolutely say that I purchase many of the gifts through NOVICA and each and every one is a treasure.
