Miguel Santiango

Lion

Miguel Santiago considered by some the finest wood carver in Oaxaca, is well known for his superb figures.

He has developed a style of his own, paying particular  attention to the faces of his subjects.  The eyes are not only painted but carved as well, each tooth is perfectly formed and colored and the ears always have a special theme.

It is no surprise then that Miguel's carvings are very sought after by collectors and  that he has a long, long waiting list.

This is a spectacular standing lion carving, very expressive and wonderfully carved.
