Wood carving, an ancestral Zapotec tradition, comes to its fullest expression through the Alebrijes. These are unreal and magic pieces born out of the imagination of the Oaxaqueño craftsmen. Alebrijes represent an innovative and unreal spirit of the Oaxaqueño soul through the hand carving and painting of fantastically shaped figures. These are made by Mixed tribes and craftsmen from San Martin Tilcajete. The perfect details makes them unique and are considered as pieces of art.
