Winged Jaguar Alebrije Mythical Spirit Animal Figure

Fierce, mythical and bursting with colour, this winged jaguar alebrije roars to life with bared fangs and a pair of soaring wings. Hand-carved from copal wood by master artisans in Oaxaca, Mexico, its fiery orange body is covered in fine hand-painted geometric patterns and spirals, while its wings shimmer in sky blue, cobalt and deep red.

The jaguar is one of the most powerful Nahual spirit guardians in Mesoamerican belief, a symbol of strength, courage and protection. With wings added in true alebrije fashion, it becomes a fantastical creature bridging earth and sky. This one-of-a-kind Mexican wood carving makes a bold centrepiece, a powerful spirit animal totem, or a standout addition to any collection of authentic alebrijes.
