The axolotl alebrije I received is absolutely stunning! The colors are vibrant, the details are incredibly intricate, and the craftsmanship is top-notch. It’s clear a lot of care and passion went into creating this piece. It’s even more beautiful in person and has quickly become a favorite in my collection. Highly recommended!
Such a beautiful piece of art. Made with such care and attention to detail. It will not be my last purchase from Talokan Art.
Words cannot describe this beautiful hand carved and beaded whale. I am drawn to whales and love wooden carvings and the beading was the icing on the cake! The workmanship and patience in creating these pieces is ingrained in the beautiful wood and beading patterns. I have my eye on the elephant also. Another gentle giant. Highly suggest Talokan Art and praise for keeping their art alive.
Gifted it to a friend for his birthday, and both be and I were very happy with it.
A truly beautiful piece well worth the expense. This was a gorgeous gift I gave to my mother and she adores it. I'll definitely be buying more in the future. It came intact with no damages, good packaging and product. My only true gripe if it even is one is that the color coding can be a bit troublesome when selecting the version you want.
I received my hate sculpture and it took my breath away with its beauty and intricate detail. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. So glad it went to someone who made this by hand with love.
I bought it for my girlfriend’s birthday and she absolutely loved it. She has always loved the ocean, especially Manta and Sting Rays and I feel great buying something that supports the arts and culture heritage.
