Dogs as domesticated pets held a place of importance throughout many of Mexico's pre-Hispanic cultures. Always loyal, the dog was trusted to lead its master's soul to the realm of the dead, for dogs were believed to see spirits. Angel Ceron crafts this extraordinary ceramic sculpture, a replica of the museum piece dated between 950 and 1521 AD.
Love this guide dog figurine. I have some Mayan pieces; and I think this might be my favorite. It arrived very well packaged and was larger than I expected. I love the color of the clay.. Debra. Mendota Heights, MN. Tue Mar 05 2019
