Mariposas Sacred Heart  Barro Pigmentado Handmade in Metepec, Estado de México

This stunning Corazón Sagrado is handcrafted from barro pigmentado, the celebrated clay of Metepec, Estado de México. Artisans sculpt each piece by hand, apply rich mineral pigments with traditional brushwork, and fire the clay to set the colors permanently. Delicate flowers and butterflies are individually attached to the heart's surface with fine wires, creating a three-dimensional composition that captures movement and depth. The rustic, textured finish celebrates the natural beauty of the clay and pigments sourced from the region's rich mineral resources. A meaningful milagro for your altar, entryway, or sacred space. This piece embodies love, protection, and gratitude, a thoughtful gift for those who cherish authentic artisanal craftsmanship and Mexican folk traditions.
