The Worry Doll League Set of 12 Guatemalan Worry Dolls with Pouch in 100% Cotton

Lopez Garcia Family

(158)

Dressed in a variety of colorful dresses, 12 Guatemalan worry dolls are here to preserve ancient Maya traditions. Legend has it that the Maya Sun God gave princess Ixmucané the gift of solving people's problems. With time people started making dolls in Ixmucané's honor and they would tell her their woes, hoping she would solve them through the dolls. "This tradition is still alive," says Ana from the Lopez Garcia Family. "The idea is to have many worry dolls and trust each one with whatever troubles you. Once you've told them, you put them under your pillow. It is said that during the night, while we sleep, the dolls will whisper the solution to our troubles. For us, crafting the worry dolls - muñequitas quita penas - is our main source of income.It allows us to provide our children with an education as well as a job for all of us." The set of 12 arrives in a pedal-loomed cotton pouch.

Please expect slight variations in color and size as each doll is crafted by hand with available materials, rendering each one unique.

Artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association present a faithful replica of the Aztec calendar, known also as the "Sun Stone."

The calendar represents the fifth sun and tells the story of the past four and marks the changing of the seasons. The Aztecs (or "Mexica," as they called themselves) believed the sun struggled daily against the forces of darkness. They aided the sun through human sacrifices.

Offering of Maize Mexico Archaeology Terracotta Corn God Sculpture

Angel Ceron Artisan Association

Skilled members of the Angel Ceron Artisan Association create an image in handcrafted ceramic to honor Mexico's pre-Hispanic civilizations. The headdress is similar to that of a Classic Maya sculpture from Copan that can be seen in the Peabody Museum.

Unique piece

Great necklace just what I was looking for. The only thing is I wish the engraving was a little deeper so you can see more of the details. But overall happy with purchase.

Beautiful Art!

I ordered two Honey Aztec Sun Stones and I received them yesterday. They are absolutely beautiful. The picture doesn't do it justice. The workmanship and artistry is truly amazing. I can't wait to hang them up in my dining room! Thank you so much for placing such great care with packing and shipping them! I look forward to having these in my home!
