Buying Oaxacan Wood Carving Musical Frog Playing The Bass Music Alebrije by David Blas Jr. Mexican Folk Art Oaxaca Mexico

One of our favorite trips on our most recent travels in Oaxaca was 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 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 bass. Such creativity, these always bring a smile. The piece is signed by the artist, and the bass is removable for safe shipping.
