Piece description

During the peak stage (150-750 BC) the Teotihuacan culture reached its maximum splendor. Proof of this are the objects created by notable artisans who perfected various forms of working with ceramics, both in vessels and in censers, braziers, candlesticks and figurines. Teotihuacan-era figurines are very different in size and type from those of other periods. Most of them were made with molds and retouched. Many of them appear with clothing, partly glued onto a triangular structure.
