Angel Matias: Spring Alebrije Rabbit

Fabulous rabbit by Oaxacan woodcarving artist Angel Matias. Angel carved this rabbit mid-stride, legs extended, head low, and ears swept back — all the energy of a hare in full flight, caught in wood. It is a dynamic, confident pose that gives the piece real movement and life. The face is painted in distinct geometric zones, each with its own fine pattern fitted together like marquetry; it has the jeweled, precious quality of a Fabergé egg. The body's sweeping bands of color, each filled with its own pattern, flow across the form like valleys full of spring flowers seen from above! Origin: Oaxaca Dimensions: 7''Tall 5''Long 2''Wide
