Aztec Calendar
A Symbol of Ancient Wisdom and Artistry
The Aztec Calendar, known as the Sun Stone (Piedra del Sol), is one of the most iconic symbols of ancient Mexican culture. This intricate masterpiece represents the Aztec understanding of time, the cosmos, and their deeply spiritual connection to the universe. At D’Argenta, we honor this timeless symbol by creating handcrafted sculptures that bring its beauty and significance into your home.
Originally carved in the 15th century, the Aztec Calendar is much more than a way to track days. It’s a reflection of the Aztec worldview, combining mythology, astronomy, and artistry. The central figure, Tonatiuh, the Sun God, is surrounded by intricate carvings representing days, months, and cosmic cycles. This design reveals the Aztecs' profound knowledge of time and their belief in the balance between humans and the cosmos.
At D’Argenta, we’ve reimagined this timeless masterpiece with handcrafted sculptures that celebrate ancient Mexico’s legacy while adding elegance to your space. Each piece, designed by skilled Mexican artisans, embodies the Aztec Calendar’s profound artistry and significance.
