Exquisite primitive hand carved image of St. James, Santiago Apóstol. Dressed with a golden hat and dark blue shirt with golden cuffs. Red trousers with a golden belt, and his feet have blue boots with golden details. Santiago Matamoros rides his white horse. The white horse is ready to take off on the Crusades. Notice the nicely carved details on both figures that give the piece a stunning look. A golden painted chain helps Santiago guide the Horse. The figure rests on a green painted stand . Many Guatemalan towns were named after Santiago Apóstol, including Antigua Guatemala; on July 25th the city celebrates its “Feria Patronal”.  Please notice that the price includes FREE USPS Shipping
