If we had to choose a pet that we can identify with and that represents the culture and richness of Mexico, it would be the aztec dog Xoloitzcuintli. The Xoloitzcuintli, a cherished breed that has stood as a loyal companion for generations, holds a sacred place in our Mexican ancestral traditions, serving as a lucky amulet to guide souls on their journey to the world beyond.

We identify with the Xoloitzcuintli because its beauty lies in its rarity and unusual character compared to the norm for a dog. Therefore, like many historical artists, we decided to continue celebrating this living archaeological gem by embodying its value in a pair of sculptures that symbolize success and prosperity, Lolo and Lola.

Lolo & Lola emerge as an abstraction of the Xoloitzcuintli’s distinctive characteristics. With their bat-like ears, sleek and hairless bodies, and long-slender tails, these sculptures encapsulate the essence of this remarkable breed.

Crafted with meticulous precision, Lolo & Lola are brought to life through the assembly of CNC Tzalam wood pieces. This endemic species from Mexico boasts a sustainable harvesting process, thanks to its rapid growth. Each sculpture is meticulously finished by hand, adorned with synthetic hair and a removable tail, imbuing them with an exquisite touch of realism and versatility.

The packaging of Lolo & Lola is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and resourcefulness. Recollecting scrap plywood pieces from wood shops and utilizing wood shavings as inner filling, we ensure that every element of the packaging serves a purpose, offering protection for these precious works of art.

Allow Lolo & Lola to become cherished symbols of cultural significance within your home, illuminating your space with their timeless beauty and celebrating the enduring bond between humans and animals.
