Description

The Shank Shop
The Lord Of The Underworld.
This is an authentic Replica of an item that can be found in museums, it is hand crafted!!
It is NOT 3D Printed
These clay items are replicas of ancient sculptures found in Maya and Aztec culture, many found in ancient tombs by archeologists, Mictlantecuhtli was the God of the underworld, a place called Mictlan, he was worshipped across Mesoamerica and is closely associated with owls, spiders and bats, Two life-size clay statues of him were found marking the entrances to the house of the eagle to the north of the great temple of Tenochtitlan.
most of the time we see death as unbearable or scary, it is only a bridge to the afterlife.
our goal is to keep our culture alive and well preserved in art, a trade that has been handed to my family from past generations, each item is hand crafted by us, there are not two alike, and I can assure that there is not another exact craft.
we put a lot of love into each one of our items, we strive to reach perfection even though it is nearly impossible, specially working with clay or ceramic, there could be stress marks or small cracks made by the changing temperatures our crafts are put to.
The piece is hand painted by us so you are taking a unique piece (there may be slight variations in the garigoleo compared to the photo)
our crafts are unique and will make a great piece of art for any place in your home, like office areas, bar rooms, living rooms and outside decor!!!
if there is a specific color you would like on any of these or a specific carving we can do it! there is a waiting time of about 2 weeks.
shipping is always free!!!
