About this item: Angel Cerón depicts a Jaguar Warrior, recreating an image from Texcoco's late classic period. The man's face seems to emerge from the toothy jaws of the spotted cat. The Mexican artisan reveals his knowledge of the ancient Aztec civilization with this ceramic mask. - Hand-crafted item -- color, size and/or motif may vary slightly - Signed by the artist About our Artist: Angel Ceron comes from a family with generations of artisan experience. He learned the family ceramic techniques from his father, Antonio Ceron Orta, a renowned artisan. Angel began a long study of Mexico's pre-Hispanic cultures and learned the Nahuatl language spoken in ancient Mesoamerica. He uses clay from northern Oaxaca state, the only clay of this kind in Mexico and perhaps in the world. The unique characteristics of this yellow clay make it ideal for his work.
