A stunning and vibrant piece of Mexican Folk art by the renowned artisan Abelardo Ruiz. Handcrafted from papier-mache and meticulously hand-painted with rich, vivid colors, intricate floral motifs, and a sweet dove accent on the gown. The top of the head is sculpted and hollowed out to function as a taper candle holder.

Excellent vintage condition. The papier-mache structure is solid, and the hand-painted details are bright. Light, normal signs of age/ handling consistent with vintage folk art pieces. Please review all photos carefully for exact condition.
