NWT Latin American Folkart Milagros Bundle

All new and really beautiful! The books gives descriptions of all the symbols and what they represent. "Milagros" is a Spanish word meaning "miracles." In religious contexts, particularly within Mexican and Latin American cultures, milagros are small, often metal, charms or votive offerings used as symbols of faith, healing, and gratitude. They are typically attached to altars, shrines, or sacred objects as representations of prayers or wishes. Milagros are deeply rooted in religious traditions, often associated with specific saints or deities. They are used to represent a prayer for healing, a request for divine intervention, or a thank you for blessings received. Milagros come in various shapes and sizes, including body parts (like limbs, organs), animals, objects (like crosses, houses), and figures. They are often pinned to statues, hung on walls, or carried on one's person as a reminder of faith and hope. The practice of using milagros is a vibrant part of Mexican and Latin American folk art and religious practices.
