Huichol Beaded Art CATRINA BRIDE Figurine Day of the Dead Mexican Folk ArtHuichol Mexican Indian folk art is truly unique and all handmade by the indigenous Indian people of the Sierra Madre mountains in Jalisco, Mexico.
100% authentic Huichol. Absolutely gorgeous, elegant black pearl and off-white color pearl theme glass beaded, Day of the Dead, Catrina Bride clay sculpture figurine. Using the traditional Huichol techniques of pressing Campeche wax onto this sculpture and adding, one-by-one, glass beads this Day of the Dead La Calavera Catrina bride depicts the offering message to the Huichol Gods.
Dressed in a gorgeous long sleeve bridal gown, with pearl color beaded accents, this Catrina portrays a traditional and elegant pose.
Her sophisticated style gown has a high neck with an off-white pearl color beaded rain symbol necklace. Her bodice is made of off-white pearl color Peyote flowers with black pearl color outlines. Her sleeves have two large corn symbols for prosperity and good crops to feed her family. At the bottom, a scorpion protects the Peyote.
On her back, a Prayer Arrow is shooting into the air to start the ceremony.
Her stunning train has a large off-white pearl color Peyote flower and a coiled snake, the Rain Goddess, that protects the fields from pests. On the edges, off-white color Peyote flowers add brilliant accents.
Her up-do hair, in 1920's clouche headdress style, has 5 pearl colored off-white and black Peyote flowers.
Her head is detachable and can move from side to side for different poses. We love her neon pink eyeshadow and Day of the Dead facial features.
Finally, she is carrying an enormous 3D sculpted Peyote flower bouquet with draped ribbons of off-white pearl color beads. Each flower petal is a Peyote flower and the off-white pearl colored leaves are 3D.
The symbols used on her gown and veil make her seem as if she is preparing for her special day in a most elegant way. Gorgeous! See the matching groom in our ebay store.
