Grey Deer Handcrafted Alebrije Deer Sculpture in Grey from Mexico Barware when someone sees a hummingbirdWorking in the tradition of alebrijes, Mexican duo Zeny and Reyna create this striking sculpture of a deer. Crouched on its back haunches, the deer is carved by hand of copal wood. This beautiful creature is diligently painted by hand with intricate motifs and a predominant grey color.
