Tree of Life Figure
Tree of life figurine is a very popular decorative element in Mexican home. The decorations are usually adorned with colors referring to the Mayan, Aztec and later colonial culture, i.e. shades of blue, green, yellow, black and red. Trees of life usually depict the scene from Eden with Eve and Adam and can be either simple in shape or more complex with a multitude of ornaments and elements. Figures of birds, people or floral objects are common decorative details.

Figurines in Mixtec style
Ceramic decorations are often produced in the very popular Mixtec style, which is known from pre-colonial times. The specific way in which Mixtec ceramics are produced is characterized by the artist's great attention to detail, deep color saturation and exceptionally rich design. The name of the pottery comes from the region where it is produced, La Puerta de la Mixteca. The craftsmen who produce Mixtec ceramic decorative pieces usually come from one family - Castillo. Each piece is marked with a signature, which guarantees that the product was made using artisanal methods by a Mexican artist. The uniqueness of the workmanship of such pottery makes the products very popular among collectors all over the world.
