for sale is a magnificent, substantial, and highly detailed vintage matching pair of Mexican folk art sculptures depicting Aztec / Mayan warrior elite or totems. Hand-carved from solid volcanic stone, these heavy figures have a premium, high-quality weight to them and serve beautifully as striking display pieces, cabinet curios, or functional bookends.
PREMIUM CRAFTSMANSHIP & MATERIALS:
- Solid Stone Bodies: Expertly hand-carved from genuine black volcanic obsidian stone, meticulously finished to a striking, high-gloss mirror shine that brilliantly reflects light.
- Ornate Sculpted Accents: Each figure features an incredibly intricate, hardened ornamental headdress and breastplate collar. They are beautifully detailed in rich, earthy ochre, cream, and crimson tones, then embellished with inlaid polished semi-precious stone nuggets, tumbled beads, and inset eyes.
- The Bases: The bottoms feature rough-cut, unpolished matte gray volcanic stone with visible historic saw and hand-chisel markings, proving the authentic raw nature of the genuine obsidian blocks. Can be used as book ends.
100% AUTHENTIC — ORIGINAL EXPORT LABEL INTACT:
A standout feature of this particular set is that one figure proudly retains its original, vintage blue foil "HECHO EN MÉXICO" (Made in Mexico) export sticker affixed to the back. This iconic official label features the geometric stylized Aztec eagle logo introduced in the late 1970s. Finding this intact sticker adds significant historical value, definitively verifying the set’s real Mexican craftsmanship and period origin for discerning collectors. Wc
