This Árbol de la Vida candelabra is a living symbol of abundance, joy, and ancestral craftsmanship. Its lineage traces back to Spanish missionaries, who used it for religious storytelling. It later became a cherished gift for newlyweds, symbolizing fertility.
Design
Handcrafted in Metepec using the delicate pastillaje technique, each detail is sculpted by applying fine clay additions one by one—forming a composition that feels both exuberant and intimate.
Its layered, narrative form and vibrant character turn this object into more than décor: it becomes a gesture of celebration and cultural continuity. A timeless expression of Mexican artistry, shaped entirely by hand.
