Oaxacan Wood Carving Musical Frog Playing The Violin Musical Alebrije by David Blas Jr. Mexican Folk outlet Art Oaxacan

One of our favorite trips on our travels in Oaxaca is to the village of San Pedro Cajonos! Situated high in the mountain Sierras three hours from Oaxaca City, this is one of the most idyllic settings that one may ever find! Perched at the top of the mountains, with sweeping views of the surrounding canyons and outlet distant pueblos, San Pedro Cajonos kisses the clouds and shines in its art forms. One of the most famous of San Pedro Cajonos artists, is the Blas Family of wood carvers. Their style is so unique and can be identified readily upon sight. Bright colors, and fine painting are their hallmarks.

These musical frogs are a hoot - full of whimsy and charm!! This piece depicts a frog playing the violin. Pure fun! The frog is signed by the artist, and the violin and bow are removable for safe shipping.

Approximate Measurements: 8 1/4" high to the top of the bow (6 3/4" high to top of frog) x 4 3/4" wide x 6 3/4" deep
