These very charming, very traditional "talking" skulls can be found in Mexico City decorating ofrendas and altars for Día de los Muertos. They are a rustic art form, traditionally made in Mexico City. The skull "talks" by pulling on the string at the bottom of the chin and he will chatter, chatter, chatter. Fun and a disappearing folk art...
