Located in Oklahoma City, OK
This rare vintage Mexican handcrafted articulated skeleton figurine is a stunning example of traditional folk art. Expertly carved from wood, this piece reflects the vibrant culture and artistry of Mexico. The skeleton is meticulously hand-painted in bold red, black, and white tones, featuring intricate details that bring it to life.
