Hand embossed Mexican hearts made from recycled tin plate.
“Mexican people are full of devotion and faith. Originally, Milagros are small figures handmade in tinplate, copper, silver or even in gold, created on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in the state of Oaxaca, they are used by the catholic as a gift or offering. Shaped with chisel and hammer, Milagros are a reminder for the Virgins and the Saints about a special request, showing how Mexican people seek refuge and hope in faith.”
