Description
Pre-Columbian, Guerrero, Mexico, ca. 400 to 200 BCE. Large and fabulous greenstone head pendant. Identified as a pendant due to the small suspension loop on the back of the head, but would be a very heave piece to wear. Mottled stone carved using pecking and string cut techniques with heavy forehead, and large nose using the natural veining in the stone for accent. A large and very lovely example! Custom stand. Size: 3.5" W x 4" H (8.9 cm x 10.2 cm)
