Selling furniture on Antigua’s streets
The other day, on my way to work, I saw this wood-carver selling his furniture on the street. I parked and took a snapshot for this blog. Later that day, on my way home for lunch, I saw a car parked next to wood-carver; he was smiling and pay attention to what the lady next to him was saying; his furniture was already loaded on her vehicle. The sale was made within a few hours: good for him.

That is beautiful work and I have just the right space for the seat he is sitting on. Pity, I don’t suppose he does international deliveries!

Great for him!
Now maybe he can have a cup of coffee.

The photo and the carvings are very nice. I am glad the crafts man was successful in his sell.

Great shot! He looks so anxious. I’m happy he made his sale so quickly. What beautiful workmanship. Wish I had a huge truck to drive down there and buy some myself!

[...] There are many ruins in Antigua, most of them, are churches, convents and monasteries. Santa Clara ruins is pictured here. This photo was taken half a block from the previous entry and about two minutes later. Tags: Antigua Daily Photo / Antigua / Guatemala / Santa Clara ruins [...]

Hello,
I look at this beautiful picture and I am looking exactly for this type of art.
I am looking for a dinning set found at Antigua Furniture: especially the Las Fuentes and the chairs with it.The bed also are very interesting…
Is there anyone who could help me with this?
Thanks
