This authentic Alebrije Woodcarving cat is hand carved by the very talented and well known artist Don Margarito Rodriguez. The finely detailed and colorful cat was hand painted by his wife Doña Esperanza. I choose each woodcarving that I sell and this piece is 100% handcrafted by Margarito and his wife, Esperanza, and she is an amazing painter! I visited them at their house in Arrazola, Mexico the birth place of Oaxaca Alebrijes. If you like the piece in the pictures, you will love it when you see it in person.
Because all authentic wood carved Alebrijes are handmade, no two are identical. You will receive the exact alebrije photographed.

When you buy from Cultural Folk Art, you are not just buying a beautiful item that reflects the culture, passion and tradition of indigenous - native people, you are also helping to support many independent artisans and crafters. Most of the areas I visit are remote and rural. With your help, I can continue to support and empower these artisans. Making them happy and seeing them smiling because they can bring food to their tables, makes us all happy.
