Catrina - Brown (Decorative Figurine)
Embrace the rich heritage of Mexico with this stunning, hand-painted Brown Clay Catrina Figurine. A perfect centerpiece for your ofrenda (altar) or a captivating addition to your year-round home décor, this piece embodies the elegance and joyful remembrance central to the Día de Muertos celebration.
The Catrina: A Cultural Icon
This figurine depicts La Catrina, the iconic skeletal figure originally popularized by Mexican illustrator José Guadalupe Posada. She is dressed in a magnificent, floor-length gown and a wide-brimmed hat, presenting a beautiful satire of high-society vanity while serving as a cheerful reminder of the universality of death.
Crafted from traditional clay and finished in a deep, glossy black base color, the Catrina's dress is brought to life with vibrant, randomly painted flowers and scrolling designs in colors like electric blue, hot pink, sunny orange, and bright green. Her skeleton features a classic, cheerful grin, poised with graceful arms over her elegant attire.
Artisan Craftsmanship and Display
Each Catrina is hand-painted by skilled artisans in Guerrero, preserving the traditions of Mexican folk art. The glossy finish on the clay base provides a striking contrast to the bright, energetic colors of the hand-painted details.
Perfect for Display: Place this Catrina next to marigolds (cempasúchil), candles, and photos on your Día de Muertos altar to honor departed loved ones. It also makes a fantastic statement piece on a mantel, bookshelf, or side table, bringing a touch of cultural beauty to any room.
Important Notice: Handpainted and Unique
Each Catrina figurine is a unique work of art. The colorful flowers and decorative designs on the dress are handpainted by artisans, which means the specific placement, color combinations, and style of the designs will vary from the item pictured.
When you place an order, a beautiful Catrina will be randomly selected from our stock for packing. This ensures that you receive a one-of-a-kind piece, adding to the individuality and authentic charm of your purchase!
