Ceramic plaque, "Natural Aztec Sun Stone"
Working in ceramic, artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association recreate the elaborate stone sculpture known as the "Aztec Calendar" or "Sun Stone." Discovered in Mexico City, the original massive stone is on display in the National Museum of Anthropology and History. The Aztecs (or Mexica, as they called themselves) believed that the sun struggled daily against the forces of darkness. They aided the sun through human sacrifices.

"Cool Skull"
Tlaloc is one of my favorite gods, so having a skull with a Tlaloc motif is greatly appreciated. Looks cool in my room, when the light catches the skull it does look like the image on the description.

"Monkeyshines replica"
I enjoy this piece immensely. It holds my art pencils and graces my studio desk and is a wonderful conversation starter but mostly it is just amazing all on its own.
