    Description

    Vintage Mexican Aztec Wall Art using brass, copper and silver metal  and
    inlaid turquoise or lapis stones.
    Inspiried by Los Castillo in the 1940's this art was called "metales divorciados" (divorced metals) because the pieces were separate.
    These hand made wall hangings are from the 1960's.
    Mounted on a black wooden board with wire for hanging.
    Measures approximately 12" x 9.5 " and is about 1/4" thick.
    Pieces are attached to give a 3D effect.
    Very well made.
    One figure is a male warrior with bow with an urn and flame and cactus in view.
    The female priestess appears to be sitting on a pyramid.
    I lived in Mexico from 1975 - 1980 where I acquired these pieces.
    Both are sold together.
    In excellent well taken care of condition.
