Guatemalan Day of the Dead Carved Wood Sketeton
Another of our skeletons in the closet, this is the smallest of the Guatemalan and Mexican skeletons we own. Standing about 3 1/2 feet tall, this little guy is somewhat different than the others in that he is somewhat more simian in appearance, and has a coating that is cracking on the skull's top. He is also held together at the joints in a different fashion, being connected with short lengths of twine or rope. Overall, the effect of this piece is striking with the red highlights and the jointing which enables posing of the piece. Quite a little character, and a must-have for the collector, or Day of the Dead altar presentation.
