Exquisite ram wood carving by the Melchor family at their workshop in San Martin Tilcajete which is a small town outside of the city of Oaxaca. The carving was very well done with great attention to detail & form with the left front leg coming up showing a running motion. The combination of dark & light colors gives a nice contrast to the Zapotec designs that adorn the piece throughout. The bright blue circles on the horns give a nice accentuation to the spirals in the horns. A true masterpiece of the highest quality. Origin: Oaxaca, Mexico. Height/Length/Width: 14" x 9" x 8.5" Material: Single piece of copal wood Signed by the artist Fantastic Ram - Oaxacan Alebrije Wood Carving
