Description
Honour Mexico's most legendary dog with this striking standing Xoloitzcuintli alebrije. Hand-carved from copal wood by master artisans in Oaxaca, Mexico, the Xolo stands proud with tall, alert ears, its slender body covered in intricate hand-painted patterns of cobalt blue, crimson, black and white, with fine Zapotec fretwork lining every edge.
In Aztec belief the Xolo was a sacred guardian who guided souls through Mictlán, the underworld, and it remains a beloved symbol of loyalty, protection and Mexican identity. This one-of-a-kind Mexican wood carving makes a meaningful spirit animal totem, a perfect gift for dog lovers, or a cherished addition to any collection of authentic alebrijes.
