These charming burros or ponies are handmade of wool woven in Chiapas and then made into the most whimsical animals. The wool is woven into fabric, then cut into the shape of these super cute animalitos. They are more a decorative object than a toy, but kids could definitely play with them. Beautifully made in various colors of wool with colorful manes and tails. Adorable. Each one is unique. Four of each available.
