Ojos de Dios Ceramic Crosses 15cm

This ceramic cross is full of colour and symbolism. A bold hand-sculpted flower takes centre stage, surrounded by swirling painted vines and the distinctive ceramic eyes — "ojos de dios" or The Eyes of God — that give this piece its name and its spiritual character.

The "Eye of God" is a powerful symbol in Mexican and wider Mesoamerican tradition, believed to watch over and protect. Here it has been combined with a cross, bringing together indigenous symbolism and Christian iconography in the way that defines so much of Mexico's most beloved folk art.

Handmade in a small family workshop near Texcoco, Mexico, this figurine supports local artisans and their communities. Siesta Crafts' commitment to Fair Trade principles ensures that these pieces are produced ethically, with respect for both the environment and the people involved in their creation.
