This Jalisco male figure was found in West Mexico and dates to 200-600 AD. It measures at a large 24 x 10 cm (12 x 5 in) at the hips. When you talk of Guadalajara, you are essentially talking about the 450 years of history which have made it what it is now. It is essential to know a bit about the past in order to live Guadalajara's present to the full.

The area of Jalisco was inhabited by various indigenous groups, up until the conquest. Today, Guadalajara is the capital of the state of Jalisco, the second largest and most important city in the country. It has around six million inhabitants, and is a large metropolis, with every feature which a cosmopolitan city should have.

The figure is well detailed with a ear and nose piercing, incised fingers and toes and painted neck decoration.

We have this figure for sale.

Nice Ice

The term “quartz” comes from the Greek word for “ice.” Ancient Greek philosophers like Theophrastus believed that the transparent stone was a form of permanent ice, so cold, it kept from thawing. European clairvoyants in the middle ages used crystal balls made of Clear Quartz, as they were said to assist in predicting the future. This may be where the crystal ball originated.

In South America, native cultures thought Clear Quartz crystal skulls held their ancestors’ spirits. And in Ancient Egypt, Clear Quartz crystal was used to construct monuments as it was believed to channel the energy from the planetary system. And in ancient Japanese mythology, Clear Quartz crystal stone was regarded as a symbol of perfection because it was believed to be the physical form of a white dragon’s breath. The mythology held that dragons were symbols of generosity and benevolence, so the crystal also became associated with such values.

We have quite a few different varieties both polished and raw specimens available for collecting or jewelry making..

Ammonites lived during the periods of Earth history known as the Jurassic and Cretaceous. Together, these represent a time interval of about 140 million years. Ammonites take their name from the Egyptian god Amun, known to the Greeks as Zeus Ammon. This god is depicted on Cyrean coins and in sculpture by a head with curling ram's horns.

Terracotta bowl

Nal culture

Indus valley

Size is about 2 1/2 inches in diameter and 2 3/4 inches tall. The bowl weighs at 151 grams.

A terracotta bowl from around 2500 BC from the Nal culture of the Indus Valley shows early skill in pottery-making. It was made by hand from local clay, fired, and usually covered with a red surface and simple black painted designs like lines, shapes, or plant patterns. The bowl’s shallow shape suggests it was used in daily life, such as for holding or serving food. At the same time, its decoration shows that people valued beauty as well as usefulness, reflecting the artistic and cultural traditions of the Nal culture.

Amulets held different meanings, depending on their type or form. Small amulets depicting gods and goddesses seem to have induced the protective powers of the deity. On the other hand, small representations of anatomical features or creatures suggest that the wearer required protection over a specific body part, or that he/she desired the skills of a particular animal. Amulets depicting animals were very common in the Old Kingdom Period, whilst representations of deities gained popularity in the Middle Kingdom.

Gran Design

Gran Coclé is an archaeological culture area in pre-Columbian Central America coinciding with the modern-day Panamanian province of Coclé. It consisted of a number of identifiable native cultures, which archaeologists have loosely designated by pottery style.

Archaeologists working at intervals since the 1920s have uncovered ruins and burials which contain striking artifacts. These include worked gold and other metals, carved bone, shell, and whale ivory, textiles, jewelry with semi-precious stones, and beautifully painted pottery. Coclé gold work was traded throughout the region, and has been found as far away as Chichen Itza in Yucatán, Mexico. The large collection of Coclé pre-historic pottery is notable for strong structural design and the use of fish, bird, animal and human figures as decoration.

Hot Pink

Pink tourmaline is a heart chakra stone.

It helps heal the heart from emotional wounds, especially those dating from childhood. It is a very gentle, soothing, and nourishing stone that helps restore a sense of wholeness.

Pink tourmaline shares some of the clearing and balancing characteristics of black tourmaline, but works on the emotional level. If you are struggling with an emotional response to stress, pink tourmaline can help you find calm and balance.

Tourmaline strengthens the sense of smell, and in that respect, can also enhance the perception of pheromones which produces an aphrodisiac effect.
