About the Item

A rare set of three Olmec Pre-Columbian fragments, dating to the 15th century, presented in a modern shadowbox display. Each fragment offers a glimpse into the artistry and cultural significance of the Olmec civilization, one of the earliest and most influential in Mesoamerica. The fragments are mounted on a khaki colored linen ground, allowing their form and texture to stand out, and are framed in sleek stainless steel for a striking contemporary contrast. This museum style presentation both protects and elevates these historic artifacts, making them suitable for display in refined interiors or private collections. A unique opportunity to acquire authentic Pre-Columbian relics, elegantly presented for the modern collector.
