According to legend, the torito de Pucará, or bull of Pucara, was a bull that was going to be sacrificed to bring rain to the town of Pucara. On its way up the mountain to be sacrificed, the bull resisted, and punctured the side of the mountain with its horn, releasing a flood of water. Peruvian artisan Zoila Davila pays homage to the bull of Pucara with this set of six ornaments. Crafted of ceramic, each colorful bull is carefully painted by hand.

"Fabulous Felines!"
I bought two sets of these adorable cat ornaments and could not be more delighted with them. The vivid colors and hand-painted detailing as shown in the photo are even more impressive in person. I hope the artist expands the collection to include more colors in the future. A must-buy for fans of cats and Christmas!
