Description
This piece is a melting pot of symbolism, blending ancient history, the cosmogony and spirituality of the Mexica people, and the treasures provided by the earth and nature. “Coatlicue – Nefertiti” is a sculpture that not only represents a fusion of cultures but also speaks to us of the presence and significance of female figures. This Mexican skull, adorned with Nefertiti’s crown, on which the serpent heads from depictions of Coatlicue—mother of all the gods in Mexica cosmogony—are displayed; the “teyolía” heart, is an example of the syncretism that endures to this day.
An exclusive piece produced using ancestral techniques, meticulously crafted in lost-wax bronze for those who truly appreciate high-quality Mexican art.
Its finishes can be enhanced with precious stones, enamel, fabric, or seashells.*
