On any given street in Mexico you will find paintings of skulls and skeletons.  They are a heavy symbol in their culture because death is viewed as a natural part of life and a reason to celebrate rather than fear.  This tradition mixes ancient Mesoamerican beliefs with Spanish influences, turning skulls into joyful and colorful symbols of remembrance.

 

Hang this beautifully handmade tin mirror in your home for a splash of classic Mexican artisanal style.

 

I picked up this large mirror along with some bird and heart designs from a man making and painting them in the streets of Oaxaca.

 

Some scratches on paint mark, which is why it is reduced.
