Day of the Dead is celebrated throughout Mexico and the Catholic
world. Italy, Spain, South America and the Philippines all celebrate
All Souls and All Saints Day on November 1st and 2nd. Special
Masses and perhaps cleaning of the cemetery tombs are part of
the traditional activities. It's only in Central and Southern
Mexico where the colorful parties take place in the cemeteries
and elaborate ofrenda altars are built in the homes to honor specific
family members who have passed on.

The mini
skeletons below are approximately 3 1/2 inches tall, or in a scale close to
that, and come from artisans in Oaxaca and Puebla. Many of these skeletons
take several hours to make. Please know that the artist never makes two
things exactly the same or he'd get bored! You may receive
a different hair color or outfit color than shown here. We sell
the nicest quality, most detailed limited edition mini skeleton
figures available.

Skeleton folk art is commonly used to adorn home altars but can also be found
decorating the tombs
on November 2. Happy skeletons are depicted as they were in life: dancers,
brides & grooms (novios),
occupations, romantically involved or just taking it easy!
