Carving on Wood Frame
« on: October 23, 2009, 08:17:43 pm »
Seems to be made of some type of resin and not an actual stone. The red part feels like a felt type of fabric. It's probably nothing too special, but if someone could possibly identify this and estimate a value that would be great. Thanks. : )

I believe what you have is a tourist souvenier from Mexico of the Aztec Sun Stone.

If it was an original hand carved stone original piece, the value would be healthy. As previously stated though, it's most likely a resin (plastic) casting with minimal value. :(
