Sablan Ceramics celebrates the beautiful tradition of Arbols de la Vida, Mexican Trees of Life. Each tree takes hours to create and because of this, we want your tree to arrive safely. We ensure there is plenty of soft packing material and space between the item and the edge of the box. Some trees will require a special box size. In addition, the item we receive must have all original tags and must be unused, unbroken and undamaged. HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR TREE: Because each tree is individually hand sculpted and hand painted there will always be slight imperfections which gives each tree a unique folk art charm. To keep true to the folk art traditions of Arbols de la Vida, all Sablan Ceramic pieces are made from low fire clay and are fired at a low temperature. All pieces are covered with a clear coat for protection but underneath, the clay is still porous which can allow liquids to penetrate. We recommend to keep your tree of life indoors and away from moisture, water and direct sunlight (for fading). To care for your tree you can wipe it down with a dry cloth.
