Inspired by the work of his father, Jose Canil Ramos creates this charming sculpture, hand-carved from pinewood. He depicts a chef who holds kitchen utensils in each hand. For the Guatemalan artisan, the process of cooking food is an important cultural aspect of life, bringing people of different ages and backgrounds together in ways that nothing else in this world can.
The hands, spoon and fork are detachable for shipping.

"This is s family heirloom now!"
Beautiful rendition of archangel Raphael. We wanted extra protection this year with do many family members having illness. We were able to generate strength and peace having this special image carved by the talented hand of Jose Ramos. The colors are very vibrant and the gold tones make this image pop out. So many family and friends now ask us to place special prayers under this sculpture and we think it is a blessing to have in our home.

"Another JOCARA success"
I ve purchased dozens of Jose Canil Ramos artworks over the years for my collection and as gifts for family and friends. Many of his best pieces are no longer available which is a shame.
