This extraordinary one-piece dog by Manuel Cruz radiates strength and symbolism. Intricately hand-carved from copal wood and painted with golden, earthy, and violet tones, it features Cruz’s signature geometric patterns and a powerful all-seeing eye , a symbol of protection and wisdom.
Manuel Cruz, one of Oaxaca’s master carvers, blends pre-Columbian motifs with a contemporary touch, creating pieces that feel both ancient and alive: a striking guardian figure and a true collector’s treasure.
