Elisa Camarena sculpts the image of a dog sitting tight with its head turned upward. In pre-Hispanic Mexico, the xoloitzcuintle dog was believed to accompany its master in death, to aid the soul in crossing rivers of blood along the road of the dead. Camarena achieves the rugged porous textures of a rock carving with this vivid depiction. The signed piece stands on a pinewood base.

The artist made a very good job. There was a long time I was looking for this kind of pyramid. I thank the artist.

"A beautiful addition to my Mayan collection"
Everything I had hoped for. Its a lovely reproduction that isnt too big or small. Perfect to display on a desk or shelf. My one comment is that there is a line of clear glue visible along the base on one side. I was able to gently scrape it off but I would definitely inspect the pieces for that.

"Extremely detailed. Love it"
We got two sets of the Mexican Sun Stone coasters today. They are extremely detailed and you can feel the quality. Put them in the living room and they dress up the end tables nicely. Don t take much room but add a feeling of class and attention to detail.I highly recommend this product and the artist!
