Hare Alebrije

Hare Alebrije

A Sacred Guide of Abundance & Celestial Energy

In Maya tradition, the hare is a revered emblem of fertility, renewal, and lunar cycles, closely associated with the Moon Goddess Ix Chel. Its prolific nature symbolizes regeneration, abundance, and the eternal rhythm of nature.

For the Aztecs, rabbits were celestial beings. The god Ome Tochtli, or "Two Rabbit," presided over festivity and excess, leading the “400 Rabbits”, deities of intoxication and celebration. The rabbit also adorned the Moon Goddess Coyolxauhqui, reinforcing its sacred connection to lunar and fertility symbolism.

Hand-painted on hand-carved Tzalam wood, a tropical hardwood native to the Yucatán Peninsula and deeply rooted in the landscapes of the Riviera Maya.

Original Masterpiece vs. Collector’s Edition

The Original Masterpiece is a singular creation—one piece only, never repeated. Fully hand-carved and painted, it embodies the complete vision of the artist.

The Collector’s Edition offers a more compact interpretation of the same design, crafted with the same level of detail and care.

Adapting such intricate work to a smaller scale is not a simplification—it’s a test of precision. Every pattern and sculptural line must be meticulously rebalanced to preserve the original spirit. Both versions are entirely handmade, ensuring each piece remains exclusive, never replicated.

1. Is each piece truly one-of-a-kind?

Yes. At Talokan, every creation is unrepeatable. We don’t work with molds or mass production. Each animal, symbol, or form is born from the vision of an artisan who channels intention, spirit, and story into every hand-placed bead or carved detail. What you receive is not just art—it’s a message from the heart.

2. How long does shipping take?

If your piece is available, we ship it within 3 to 5 business days. For made-to-order creations, please allow 2 to 4 weeks. We believe in delivering something sacred, not something rushed. Every package carries a fragment of soul and time.

3. How do I know it’s authentic?

We work directly with artisans from various Mexican traditions—Huichol, alebrijes, and others—always honoring their techniques, symbols, and creative freedom. Each piece includes a certificate of authenticity and, when possible, a small note sharing the story or animal spirit behind it.

4. What if my piece arrives damaged?

We pack each piece with great care—layers of protection, firm casing, and soft interior wrapping—so it almost always arrives in perfect condition. But if anything happens, don’t worry. We’ll repair or replace it with love. What matters is that the message reaches you whole.

5. Can I request a custom piece?

Yes. Sometimes a symbol calls to you, and it deserves to be born. Write to us with your vision or the animal spirit that speaks to your heart, and we’ll co-create it with one of our artisans. It’s not just a commission—it’s a shared ritual.

Craftsmanship

At Talokan, every piece is born from silence—from the slow breath of the artisan who listens to the animal spirit that wants to speak. We don’t manufacture art; we midwife symbols. Each sculpture, each bead, is a message encoded in form—calling for connection, for serenity, for memory.

Kiye González, our founder, walks hand in hand with the guardians of this ancestral craft. But it is not she who leads—it is the spirit of the piece. Talokan does not impose designs. Here, the artisan chooses. They dream. They draw. They gather colors and textures not to decorate, but to invoke.

There are no machines. No templates. Only hands guided by purpose. A manta ray to awaken stillness. A jaguar to carry wisdom. A xoloitzcuintle to guide the heart home. We create at the pace of reverence. We finish only when the piece feels proud to be shared.

We do not rush. We do not follow trends. We remember.

Because to own a piece of Talokan is to carry a fragment of sacred time.

And those who carry it… become messengers of a deeper story.
