Handmade Catholic Decoupage Wood Chest, ‘Virgin of Guadalupe’

Forever linked to Mexico, the Virgin of Guadalupe is queen of the heavens she stands on the moon and her cloak holds the stars. She first appeared in 1531 to Juan Diego outside Mexico City and, as proof, caused roses to bloom at the site. Named Patron Saint of the Americas by Pope John Paul II, she is a beloved manifestation of the Catholic faith. Ana Maria González recreates the famous portrait in an antique-style decoupage box with a rustic finish.
