Unique Papier Mache Catrina Statuette with Flower

Discover the enchanting beauty of this exquisite Catrina statuette, meticulously crafted by Marina Lozano, a talented artisan from Mexico. This delightful piece is a perfect blend of traditional papier mache artistry and modern elegance. The statuette features the iconic 'La Calavera Catrina', a skeletal sculpture adorned with flowers, embodying the spirit of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration. Each detail, from the delicate flowers in her hair to the one in her hand, is thoughtfully designed to capture the essence of this beloved folk art character.

Artisanal Craftsmanship and Historical Significance

Marina Lozano's Catrina statuette is a homage to the original 'La Calavera Catrina' by José Guadalupe Posada, a zinc etching created in Mexico around 1910. Posada's creation was a satirical portrayal of Mexican natives who aspired to European style while denying their own heritage. Today, the Catrina has become a symbol of pride and celebration. This statuette not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece but also carries the rich history and cultural significance of Mexico.
