Perfect for educators or jewelers looking for interesting accents, this is a diverse set of 6 ceramic, shell and stone artifacts from Pre-Columbian Mexico. There are two ceramic heads from idols, two "tinklers" (shell dangler bells), a jade carved head pendant and a long tubular bead. All of these are premium artifacts, each representing ceremonial beliefs as well as various forms of body adornment. All are INTACT and in fantastic preservation. The shells, bead and mask pendant are still able to be worn today. There were many pre-Spanish cultures that once called Mexico 'home' and these CHOICE pieces encompass a slice of daily life of those ancient cultures.
An inexpensive and fascinating teaching aid for ancient Pre-Columbian lectures whereby the objects are safe to handle and pass around with no stress of damage or loss to an expensive, prize piece. Includes our written unconditional lifetime certificate of GUARANTEED AUTHENTICITY.
