Priscila Canales NECKLACE Olmec Style JADE
This monumental piece made by Ms Canales is an extraordinary hand-wrought piece in our one-of-a-kind collection. The piece is named after a unique wild fig tree found in the Valley of Mexico. The cortex of the tree has been used as a form of paper for thousands of years. The tree also has complex and external roots systems. Priscila studied carefully these roots and also understood the importance of this tree in Mexican history. As a tribute to our cultures and the tree itself she created this piece and gave it a unique name. AMATE:RAICES DEL HOMBRE (Amate: The Roots of Man). This outstanding piece is made using repousse, oxidation and carving. COLLECTOR QUALITY
