Milagro Wood Carvings - Mexico
Milagros, translating to miracles, are a Latin American religious folk
tradition. These good luck charms are typically small and made of a
metal alloy mixture. Historically, milagros accompanied the Spanish to
Latin America. Today, you'll find them in churches and other religious
locations, as well as affixed to various objects. Milagros are offered
as a tool for healing. The meaning of each unique milagro is open to
interpretation: for example, a heart-shaped milagro may symbolize
romance and love or a healthy heart.
