A curious little giraffe looks to the heavens in this endearing copal wood figurine from Mexico. Zeny and Reyna carve the sculpture by hand and paint it with exquisite detail. The giraffe's tail is braided with maguey ixtle fibers, which are somewhat coarse since they are not treated. Small parts are separated for shipping to protect from breakage.
