Lodge partnered with Mexico City-based artist Lourdes Villagómez to create a collectible Xolo dog sugar skull skillet in honor of Day of the Dead, or Día de los Muertos.

Lourdes is a contemporary artist known for her bright use of color, bold acrylic paintings, and beautifully decorated skulls. She has shown her work in New York, Italy, and across Mexico City and was highlighted as one of Mexico’s most promising new artists in 2016.

Lodge pre-seasoned 26cm cast iron griddle with its even heating capability is perfect for tortillas, quesadillas, chapati, roasted vegetables, grilled sandwiches, pancakes and much more.

Pre-seasoned with oil for a natural, easy-release finish that improves with use, this convenient pan is at home on the oven, cooktop (induction included), grill, on the BBQ or over the campfire.

Lodge partnered with Lourdes to create a collectible skillet that commemorates the history, story, and traditions associated with Day of the Dead across Mexico. And this year, they've added a Xolo Dog Griddle to the collection. Lourdes shares that her goal with both pieces was to bring the traditions of the holiday to people everywhere, highlighting it in a new way to represent a part of her culture that many never see.
