SEE VIDEO to see just how beautiful this artist work is. Is signed, see pictures.  By JAN BARBOGLIO. This is a RARE piece and is RETIRED. These are highly collectable and with my collection of Jan Barboglio iron pieces, they tend to go off the shelf as soon as I get them. The BIG FISH LARGE TRINKET BOX stands approximately 8" long and 3.5" wide. Pictures and video shows every side and is part of the description and condition.  The color is nearly black or a very dark brown to brown. You may see brown in the piece and this is the finishing process that adds to its distinct iron metal beauty.  This is a Barboglio Cristina and Jan Collection and holds many traditions in Mexico and Latin America Countries. Just gorgeous! Each of the artist piece is slightly different in shading texture, color, irregularities, and imperfections - because they are hand individually casted. Great condition. I really love this piece and I am sure you will too!!

 These iron pieces handmade by Jan Barboglio have a long history in Mexico and Latin American countries. Each piece is hand worked. It is individually cast or wrought, hammered, sanded and hand finished. Slight irregularities, imperfections and variations of shading and texture are characteristics of the material and the old world finishing process that adds to its distinct beauty.  Each piece is slightly different.

Jan BarboglioAfter many years designing clothing with her sister in their Barboglio Cristina & Jan Collection, Jan Barboglio began sculpting accessories and furniture for her own home. Her childhood, spent in north central Mexico, would prove to be fertile ground for inspiration, and every object created by her would carry with it the rich history and romance of old Mexico.

Barboglio’s initial designs of wax grabbers were for her silver, bronze and iron candelabra. Altar pieces and house blessing crosses were integrated into her own home furnishings. Her love of entertainment would later result in her own iron chargers,  platters and chafing dishes. Leather goods and saddle stools began to fill her home. All of these influences are evident in her Jan Barboglio Collection of today.

Jan Barboglio’s original designs led the way for her current and extensive home accessories line. The Jan Barboglio Collection has since flourished into crosses and crowns, fleur de lis and scrolls, wildflowers, dog canisters, and roses, guardian angels and symbolic bleeding hearts. From her signature Box of Miracles which houses 12 metal “milagros”, prayer and family crosses, Barboglio is now well-known for bringing the spiritual aspect of old Mexico to home decor.
