# Rangel Hidalgo Massive Sideboard, Comala, Colima, RARE
Priced in Mexican Pesos.
From the workshops of Rangel Hidalgo, a extra large Sideboard, Period Piece, a very rare piece with the hand painting in excellent condition. Notice the beautiful hand forged harware, designed by Rangel Hidalgo and forged at the cooperativo.
The base is 119" (302cm) wide, 20" (50cm) deep and 83" (210cm) tall.
From the small town of Comala, Colima ( a true Pueblo Magico, I would highly recommend visiting there someday).
The cooperative there was founded by 2 of the Rangel Hidalgo brothers in the 60's.
The height of it's productivity was in the 1960s and 70's. All hand made of high quality materials, hand painted, excellent craftsmanship. You never see a piece of Rangel Hidalgo furniture that is wobbly or coming apart.
Alejandro Rangel Hidalgo ( 1923 - 2000) was a Mexican artist and painter , designer of furniture and blacksmithing (sometimes called Rangelian style). He was born on February 2 , 1923 in the city of Colima , Colima . His peculiar style conformed in large part to his multifaceted work as a painter, collector, designer, graphic illustrator, and set designer. He studied high school at the Guadalajara Institute of Sciences. In 1947 he traveled to Europe to spend two years touring art centers and museums in Spain and France through a scholarship, it is there where he works for a time as a set designer for ballets and operas. Back in Mexico he began working as a book illustrator, working with foreign and Mexican writers. He was the creator of a collection of Christmas cards that, when traveling around the world, received awards from Unicef and made him worthy of important recognitions, with the collection of Pre-Hispanic Angels and Angels of this world . In 1993 he obtained the prize for Arts and Humanities. He developed his designer facet when he founded the Comala School of Crafts. As a set designer, his work stands out with the Colima State Folkloric Ballet together with Rafael Zamarripa , created during the Rectorate of Lic. Jorge Humberto Silva Ochoa.
