About the Item
The collection of temple sculptures are inspired by the postclassic period of pre-Hispanic Mesoamerican ceremonial architecture from the center and south of what today makes up the country of Mexico.
Temple central is a 3-piece detachable sculpture.
Crafted and finished on the shores of Lake Cajititlán, Jalisco, Mexico. This area is recognized for its extensive amount of basalt stone traditionally used to make molcajetes. This type of stone is recolected manually and is a material known for its hardness and aesthetic appeal and texture. Various pre-Hispanic sculptures and archaeological objects have been made with this material in the past.
The central sculpture is made with two processes, initially the stone is cut with an angle grinder and it is forged by hand with a chisel giving the initial shape, then the angle grinder is used again to give the finishes. Doing a manual mixed process. This production technique creates unique silhouettes and ensures that each piece is truly one of a kind.
While designed as a base, the piece also serves as a stand-alone display object. Its abstract minimal design makes it a focal point in any setting, showcasing its exquisite craftsmanship. Each piece is produced in small batches, resulting in slight variations between pieces. Such features may include small deformities, scratches, or pitting on the surface, adding to the unique charm of each one's archeological appearance.
The Temple Central is not just a decorative item but a work of art. Its minimalist, abstract and geometric language make it a perfect choice for design professionals and architects looking to introduce a piece with historical references and an evolving aesthetic into their designs.

Manantial Vase by Omar Ortiz
Located in Geneve, CH
Manantial Vase by Omar Ortiz, 2021
Dimensions: H21 x W10cm
Materials: Volcanic stone, black clay.
Is a vase that is held off the ground by a hand-carved stone base. The vase resists fire below 950 degrees so it can be used to burn charcoal inside it or incense or contain water for flowers and plants. The vase made of black Oaxacan clay filters a very light humidity through its walls, which are cooked at a low temperature with wood and not glaze. The base of Manantial is made of volcanic stone known as recinto. The shape of the base is inspired by the legs of the traditional molcajete that is used to grind spices and chili peppers while the arches refer to the basic shape of the entrance to a cave creating an empty space between the ground and the black clay vase...
