Papier mache figurine, 'Flower Vendor'

Kneeling primly, a girl offers flowers for sale to passersby - the colorful paper blossoms enticingly arranged in a wicker basket. The merchant's bright clothing, wide eyes and shy smile are charming. Crafted of papier mach�, the piece is hand-painted in the cheerful hues that are the hallmark of the Orozco Family's work. A protective coat of lacquer keeps the colors bright. Clean with a damp cloth, but take care not to immerse the piece in water. Because each figurine is individually crafted by hand, each one is a unique work of art. Thus color and detail may vary slightly from that pictured.
