Authentic Huichol (Wixarika) beaded Chihuahua sculpture handcrafted in Mexico and signed by the artist, Librado Carrillo Carrillo, Paritemay. Thousands of individually applied Czech glass seed beads are meticulously set in traditional Campeche wax, creating a remarkable work of Indigenous Mexican folk art.
This elegant Chihuahua features a vibrant palette of multicolor beads and metallic beaded accents with traditional Huichol sacred imagery incorporated throughout the design. Visible symbols include peyote flowers, deer (Messenger to the God\'s), a stalk of strong corn for successful crops, the butterfly for transformative visions and additional geometric motifs representing the Wixarika people\'s spiritual connection to nature and their ancestral traditions.
Every bead is individually placed by hand, requiring exceptional patience and craftsmanship. This standing Chihuahua has a proud, alert expression and is beautifully detailed from every angle, making it an outstanding display piece for collectors of Huichol art, Mexican folk art, Indigenous art, or dog sculptures.
