Large ex-voto heart in cut and embossed brass by hand with Meixque, gold color, finely bordered with 3 rows of embossing of different sizes and shapes and surmounted by the flame of the sacred heart.
Burning flame brass votive heart.
Finely worked by hand, this ex-voto heart is surmounted by the flame of the sacred heart. Entirely in gold brass with a thickness of 0.3mm, this heart is cut and embossed by hand by the artisan manufacturer.
It is bordered by three rows of embossing each of a different size and shape which softens its appearance.
It is a perfect example of the centuries-old tradition of metalworking in Mexico, which was enriched with models and forms of religious art imported by the Spanish conquest.
The gold color recalls the centuries-old know-how of the original Mayan populations but also the precious metal which was the imperative motive for the conquest of the Americas.
