Details

Grinning Catrina frolics in a decoupage collage as Ana María González commemorates Day of the Dead with a colorful treasure chest. The word catrina is widely used in Mexico to mean "elegant and polished." Lithographer Jose Guadalupe Posadas created the skeletal Catrina, who was later immortalized in the murals of Diego Rivera. In Mexico, the Day of the Dead is about celebrating the life of those who have passed, rather than mourning their deaths. People visit graves with offerings, including bright floral displays.

“This is the cutest Day of the Dead box”

The box has cute decoupage pictures of Catrina and others celebrating the traditional and festive Day of the Dead in Mexico. Lots of skeletons and scull masks, and all very colorful. Very fun and well made and I will probably leave it out on a shelf all year.

Celebrating the Day of the Dead!

“Beautiful Work”

Novica is new to me, so when it popped up while I was browsing, I was skeptical, but decided to take a chance and ordered this beautiful Day of the Dead jewelry box. The workmanship is superior, the colors are fabulous and and a great artist touch. Not only was the product exceptional, it came gift wrapped with a thank you note from the artist. I was not expecting the attention to detail and the care when packaging. It also arrived in a timely manner and I was kept apprised of the shipping by email. Class act, I will definitely be ordering something in the future.
