This delicately bone-carved Santa Muerte with an extra large scythe blade holds a globe as a reminder of death’s dominion over the world. Its finely carved features give the impression of warmth, benevolence, and grace such as a favored aunt or grandmother who stands watching with mirth from afar.

Sourced in Mexico. Santa Muerte—literally saint or holy death—is a folk saint popular in Mexico and the Mexican diaspora.

4 3/4” tall.
