Here is a little confession: I do like many of the business signs in Antigua. As much as I dislike billboard and over-the-top advertising, I have to admit I do have a soft spot for beautifully-made signs.
Here are some of my favorites, so far: Colibrí, Sabor Cubano, Mico and Doña María Gordillo.
Macaco is a jewel-of-a-store for Antigua. They sell decorative art pieces and functional art adornments made by an artist from Guatemala City. Here is an example of a metallic cat accent I posted long, long time ago on May 8th. I believe they do foreign deliveries; I will get their contact information and I will post it later.
Does anybody knows what macaco is?

You are right, this is a very beautiful sign compared to all the other over the top advertisements usually shown.
I’m with you on this one. Billboards I can do without but nothing beats a great sign.
A monkey, a robot project, and navigational term= thanks to google. I like the sign, and I’d like to see more art work from the shope, too!
I think you shared some very useful information which really attracted lots of people over here.
