His grandfather, Don Manuel Jiménez Ramírez, is credited with founding the Oaxacan alebrije tradition itself, and Armando works today in the same San Antonio Arrazola style his grandfather established: rustic, confident, unpolished in the best sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis cheetah leans into that rustic sensibility. The long, elongated legs and low, stalking stance give the piece real tension and movement, closer to a sketch caught in wood than a naturalistic study. The face carries the most invention, angular planes, a stylized muzzle, and bold, almost graphic patterning that owes more to Jimenez's own eye than to the animal's real markings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAn authentic piece of Oaxacan wood carving, hand-carved from copal wood in the alebrije tradition Don Manuel began generations ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin: Oaxaca \u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 11''Tall 12''Long 3''Wide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sandia Folk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48730139820281,"sku":"731366AJ","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0245\/1069\/3451\/files\/Alebrije-Cheetah-Woodcarving9680.jpg?v=1785512414","url":"https:\/\/www.sandiafolk.com\/products\/oaxacan-woodcarving-cheetah-armando-jimenez","provider":"Sandia Folk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
