Description
Handcrafted from natural clay at Taller Ruiz López in Oaxaca, this oversized skull is a true statement piece. With its substantial weight, rustic texture, and unmistakable personality, it reflects the artistry and tradition of Oaxacan pottery.
Bold, unique, and full of character, it is made to stand out. Let it anchor the center of your altar de muertos, sit on a mantel, or take over the coffee table. It does not need much around it, but it looks beautiful surrounded by candles and marigolds.
This is the kind of piece you bring out every year and start to recognize like an old friend. A treasured part of your celebration for years to come, and a gift that will be remembered.
Handle with care, clay is delicate. Because every piece is made by hand, size, shape, and color vary slightly. That is the point.
* Large Clay Skull: 9 inches high × approximately 7 inches across.
REAL INGREDIENTS. REAL DIFFERENCE.
Four pillars that guide everything we make.
We source with intention from Mexico, landrace corn, Colima sea salt, Mexican chiles, blue agave and more. Every ingredient has a place, a story, and a reason for being here.
No seed oils. No artificial preservatives. No unnecessary additives. Just recognizable ingredients made for real cooking, real flavor and everyday use.
Our products are made in small batches to protect flavor, texture and quality. Nothing is rushed, over-processed or stripped of what makes it special.
Matriarca was created to honor the ingredients, techniques and women behind Mexican kitchens. These are pantry staples made with the respect Mexican food has always deserved.
Read the label. You’ll see the difference.
