Product Description
This Medium Aztec Copper Calendar is a striking homage to ancient Mesoamerican craftsmanship, blending symbolic tradition with artisanal metalwork. Hand-hammered and embossed from recyclable copper in Santa Clara del Cobre, it replicates the revered Aztec Sun Stone with Tonatiuh—the solar deity—at its center. His face is rendered in bold geometric lines and traditional motifs that symbolize time, life, and cosmic power.
Surrounding the central figure are meticulously engraved symbols for the 20 day signs of the tonalpohualli calendar, enclosed by additional glyphs tied to solar cycles and Aztec mythology. Each concentric ring adds historical depth, capturing the complexity of pre-Hispanic cosmology. A carefully applied patina choice enhances its timeworn character, while the copper’s natural sheen highlights the dimensional relief.
