Finely handcrafted, this ex-voto heart is bordered with richly detailed ornaments inspired by the time of Spanish colonization. Entirely in gold brass with a thickness of 0.3mm, it is cut and then embossed by hand by the artisan manufacturer.
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 craftsmanship of this metal by the original Mayan populations but also the precious metal which was the imperative reason for the conquest of the Americas.
