Proud to celebrate the roots of The Day of the Dead with “Santa Muerte.” Following the launch of Lady of Guadalupe in 2023 – which sold out in just four days – Pleased to introduce the second production of the Saints series, a limited-edition production of 500 Colt 1911s.
Santa Muerte has surged in popularity and taken on an increasingly prominent role in the Day of the Dead festivities, which are held on the first and second days of November. Santa Muerte is not the patron saint of death but rather is the personification of death. Unlike other Latin American folk saints, Santa Muerte is not seen as a dead human being. She is associated with healing, protection, financial well-being and assurance of a path to the afterlife. It is said that she is able to perform miracles for those in need and when they finish their cycle of life here on earth, she fulfills God’s orders and reaps the souls of the deceased.
The slide features toned illustrations of roses that believers of Santa Muerte hold particularly sacred. Roses are holy to them because they are associated with Lady of Guadalupe and because, although beautiful and feminine, they have sharp thorns and will draw blood. Other objects associated with Santa Muerte include scales, an hourglass, an owl and an oil lamp. The scales allude to equity, justice and impartiality, as well as divine will.
