Vtg Folk Art 1960s 26” Matchstick crucifix lamp cross
This is just an amazing piece of folk art!
Standing 26 inches tall by 22 inches wide by 10 inches deep, this matchstick crucifix actually has light sockets at the four different points of the cross. The maker set it up for Christmas tree lights and I added the bubble light to the bottom. Judging by the protective piece of rug remnant that’s been glued to the bottom, and the applied silver plastic crucifix, I would guess that it was likely made during the 1960s.
Suitable for a home shrine or religious decoration, it is in very good vintage condition, although some of the match sticks may be chipped on the end points. A super unusual item!

Vintage Alebrije Porcupine Hand Made Folk Art Oaxaca Mexico Copal Rainbow Colors
Delightful vintage Mexican Folk Art figurine is in very good condition. Talented Mexican artists hand carved its body from copal wood and its quills from maguey plant fiber. They use a multiple array of vibrant colors to give life to this porcupine and decorate it with the traditional and detailed motifs that distinguish Mexico's alebrije artwork. It is approximately 3.5 inches tall, 5 inches long and 6 inches wide. None of the toothpick like quills are missing. I was able to remove and replace them when dusting it. Red, orange, green, blue, yellow, purple. All the colors of the rainbow. Handle by the nose or tail. Check it out in our eBAy store here. |

SOLD! Day of the Dead Doorway Mirror Signed Folk Art
Constructed of wood, (pine I think) paint, and mirrors this Day of the Dead mirror doorway altar is signed by the artist “Thorp 93“ on the back.
Purchased from a local estate it stands approximately 1 foot tall, 8 inches wide and 3 inches deep. Unboxed it weighs 2 lbs. 7oz.
The doors opening up to a mirror that reflects the swirls on the inside is pretty cool. I also like the two little bozo skulls that are hanging over the doorway. (it’s what they look like, anyway)
It’s an interesting folk art item.
