Mexican Tin Nicho – Catrina Bride & Groom, La Catrina Wedding Scene
Celebrate love beyond the living with this hand-crafted Mexican tin nicho, vividly depicting a skeletal bride and groom in wedding regalia—a romantic nod to La Catrina and the Día de los Muertos tradition. Handmade in Mexico, the tin box is beautifully embellished with glitter, floral motifs, hearts, and papel picado banner accents. Equipped with both a kickstand and a hanging hook, it offers versatile display options. Nichos originated as devotional shadow-box retablos but have evolved to capture secular, cultural, and emotionally resonant narratives—your piece is a standout example of this folk art form’s evolution.
