Carved by the Aj Canil Family, this Venado mask brings that connection into a vivid, highly individual piece of folk art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHand-carved from wood and painted in bright yellow with black spots and multicolor geometric details, the mask has a long snout, antlers, almond-shaped eyes, and an extended red tongue. Its colors are an artistic interpretation rather than a claim of traditional deer coloration, and an original sticker confirms it was made in Guatemala.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deer (Venado)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aj Canil Family\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chichicastenango, Guatemala\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-carved wood with polychrome paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Estimated 1970s–1980s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent vintage condition with bright paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSymbolism:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nature, connection, balance, and the ceremonial animal world\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAvailability:\u003c\/strong\u003e One-of-a-kind piece; one available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor those who see the home as a place to stay connected to the natural world, the deer carries an old and recognizable reminder.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"From The Andes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44883017859129,"sku":"MS-0080","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/3134\/5977\/files\/vintage-guatemalan-deer-mask-2486884.jpg?v=1786789578","url":"https:\/\/fromtheandes.com\/products\/vintage-spotted-deer-mask-guatemala","provider":"From The Andes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
