This skeleton changarro boasts three calaveras, all ready for the feast at Frida's Taco Stand. Our artist has included all sorts of interesting uniquely Mexican art to decorate the scene.

Day of the Dead Fancy Butterfly (Mariposa)

More Day of the Dead Figures

So there are insects in the afterworld after all - or, at least so it seems with this little Day of the Dead mariposa. S/he is an ever-so-fancy butterfly.

Butterflies have special meaning throughout Mexico. The gorgeous monarch butterflies that summer up north return to Mexico for the winter. They enjoy the protection of the oyamel fir trees. Anyone would welcome the lovely butterflies just for their beauty, but the local residents believe that the butterflies bear the spirits of their beloved ancestors, which are honored during Los Dias de los Muertos.

Wing color and design varies slightly, but each and everyone of these is just wonderful!

Day of the Dead Diorama - At the Gravesite

More Day of the Dead

We're not so sure what's going on here, but we were certainly taken with it. Perhaps these two are honoring the dead. Seated on the grave is a Muerta woman in a bikini and, at the foot of the grave stands a fully dressed gentleman. The grave bears a green wreath which might indicate that this is a new burial, or, indeed, that it is during the celebratory Days of the Dead. Once it's yours, you can create your own fiction or reality.

This special diorama is created almost like a shrine or nicho, with the two Muertos and the finely created accessories in a box, which measures about 4 inches wide, 2-1/2 inches high and about 2 inches deep. Dioramas this finely made are generally much more expensive than this. So, we feel lucky to have found it.

All of our Day of the Dead figures are made by traditional artisans and are hand sculpted and painted by traditional Mexican artisans. Each is a bit different as they are all handmade! Please let SilverCrow choose one for you!

Everything on this little table and the table itself has been hand made! Only the lace seems to have been manufactured.

Each table is painted a different color, making the one you receive even more yours! The table top is trimmed with lace and covered with an assortment of foods, skulls, candles, dinnerware and holy pictures. You might consider adding a miniaturized photograph of your ancestor to the table as well.

The entire piece measures 2 inches high (including the offerings). The tables, because they are hand made, vary slightly in size, but they average around 2-1/2 inches long by 1-3/4 inches wide.

Although the design is similar, each of the individual pieces varies slightly due to the nature of hand-made folk art. And the items on the table may differ slightly and may even be placed a little differently. We had a hard time choosing which one to photograph as they were all so wonderful!

Posada's Popular Mexican Prints

Mexico's Festival of Communion with the Departed - Los Dias de Muertos, un Festival de Comunion con los Muertos en Mexico.

José Guadalupe Posada (1852-1913) was Mexico's illustrious graphic artist. For over forty years, he worked tirelessly as an incorruptible and truly popular artist, illustrating cookbooks and fortune-telling books, collections of songs and riddles, periodicals and newspapers, children's books and novels and most of all- the famous broadsides that were distributed throughout the country. After his death he was venerated by the new generation of artists -- Rivera, Orozco and many others, who realized that he had both saved and renewed the art of engraving in Mexico and who incorporated much of his imagery into their own work.

There are 273 reproductions of Posada's best engravings - all done for the printer & publisher A. Vanegas Arroyo in Mexico City. Along with the prints, you'll find explanatory notes and commentary, often with topical meaning to what otherwise appears vague or allegorical.

This softbound book is 156 pages and measures 8-3/8 by 11-1/4 inches

Postcard of Frida Kahlo & Diego Rivera con Judas

Our Day Of The Dead Papier Mâché Judas is a traditional character present in many Mexican and Central American celebrations. By tradition, Judas characterizations are made in the images of those in authority - such as judges and the police. In celebrations, they are filled with gun powder and fireworks and when exploded, a great cloud of paper scraps and smoke appears, the paper raining down around the celebrants.

Of course, ours is an image only (no gun powder or fireworks are included). Figures like this little fellow were made even more popular by Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera as they began to collect them along with other local folk art.

Each of these is very different from the next - from his horns to his wings to his body decoration. These are hand sculpted, painted and decorated by traditional artisans in the same manner they have made these for decades.

Every Judas is vibrantly colored in reds, blues and yellows. The approximate measurements are 15-1/2 inches from the tip of his horns to the bottoms of his feet. From wingtip to wingtip, he is about 7-1/4 inches wide. And, as he sits on your shelf or chair, he measures 7 inches from front to back.

The coquettish image of the Catrina inspires Maria Belen Nilson's Day of the Dead Catrina Earrings. Catrina is the original creation of José Guadalupe Posada, renowned author, journalist and political cartoonist (1852-1913). Posada is credited for popularizing the Day of the Dead celebrations, especially through the creation of skeletal (calaca) cartoons that capture the Mexican attitude towards death.

One of the most renowned skeletons is the Catrina, (meaning "dapper lady"), and she is always elegantly dressed featuring a wide brimmed hat with flowers. Our earrings set measures 3/4 inch wide by about 2 inches long. These are hand made, so please allow for variation.
