Ceramic mask, 'Aztec Duality'
By Anita
Angel Cerons precious art piece blesses my home.
As many times as my eyes scanned all the art pieces available on Novicas site, again and again I returned to Angel Cerons Aztec Duality. The meaning of the mask as well as its beauty spoke to me, captivated me. And when the two I ordered arrived at my home and I saw them in their three dimensional beauty, I appreciated their sacredness even more. They now hover above the entry to my home, blessing all who enter it.

The mask is beautiful. Arrived in a very well-packed package and was intact despite its delicate nature. Will be keeping any eye out for future purchases.
