A figure created for decoration and add intense colors, brightness and textures to one of your favorite home or office spaces. This representation of the Maquilishuat tree was handmade by selfless artisans of glass art, based on the design conceived by the artist Margarita Llort, who was inspired by our national tree.
The Maquilishuat is since 1939 the national tree of El Salvador. It can measure up to 20 meters high, it blooms in the dry season between February and April, producing pink flowers before the leaves that lose every year. When it blooms, it is one of the most beautiful trees in the region.
Together with valuing our beautiful biodiversity, when acquiring figures from the Vitronatura collection you will be helping with the activities that Salvanatura performs in El Salvador for the conservation of the environment. This joint initiative promoted El Salvador stained glass to adopt new “zero waste” practices in its productive processes, reusing all the leftover glass of large projects in a creative way, through UPCyCling being transformed into material to give life to new works.
Margarita Llort put her inspiration in each piece with the objective of sensitizing about respect for our flora and fauna, through art. That is why these works are excellent gifts for the home, where glass is in harmony with wood, giving a touch of innovation and elegance to those spaces that you want to decorate with a unique piece.
