Pre-Columbian, Mexico, Guerrero, Mezcala, ca. 400 to 100 BCE. A finely-executed anthropomorphic figure, carved and string-cut from a gorgeous mottled green stone with red and beige inclusions.

Size: 3.375" H (8.6 cm); 3.875" H (9.8 cm) on included custom stand.
Provenance: collection of the late Peter Arnovick, San Francisco, California, USA
