Funny figurines of musicians - Mariachi
Human figurines are a very popular decorative element referring to Mexican culture. The figurines may depict people in regional costumes used during national or religious holidays, or Mexicans performing everyday activities. The faces of the figurines are often shown as skulls, so characteristic in the culture of the Mayans, Aztecs and later Catrinas. This form of presenting the figurines' faces is closely related to the beliefs and culture of Mexico, which indicates the inevitability of death, its proximity and everyday reality. Human figurines are a common decorative element decorating Mexican interiors, harmonizing with other ceramic elements decorating the space, such as tiles, jugs or bowls.
Figurines made of polychrome ceramics
This method of producing ceramic items comes from pre-colonial times and is often called Mixtec ceramics due to its geographical location. After the Spanish takeover of Mexico in the 16th century, Mixtec pottery was enriched with Spanish-Moorish elements. Ceramics produced in Izúcar de Matamoros, or as others say in La Puerta de la Mixteca, are characterized by very high quality, attention to detail and deep color saturation. Decorative elements made of polychrome clay were most often ordered in connection with religious events. Mixtec ceramic products are most often made by craftsmen from the Castillo family, and the artisanal method of producing polychrome ceramics makes it very popular among collectors around the world.
