Vintage lot of 4 small travel souvenir miniatures featuring ancient architecture and archaeological-inspired designs from Mexico and Europe.


This eclectic collection includes:


* Chichén Itzá / Yucatán, Mexico pyramid – warm terracotta-toned miniature with detailed stepped construction and “Yucatan Mexico” marked on the front.

* Mesoamerican reclining figure – gray stone-look figure resembling a traditional Chac Mool, depicted partially reclining with stylized facial, headdress and body details.

* Small Mayan-style stepped pyramid/temple – ivory and dark-toned miniature with carved or molded architectural and geometric details.

* Roman Colosseum/amphitheater – detailed ivory-colored miniature mounted on a square gray marble or stone-look base.


Three of the pieces have a particularly cohesive Mexican/Mesoamerican archaeological theme, while the Colosseum adds another iconic ancient-world landmark. Together they have a great collected-over-time travel aesthetic with muted stone, ivory, gray and earthy terracotta tones.


These would display beautifully in a curio cabinet, bookshelf, study or gallery-style collection, particularly with dark academia, eclectic maximalist, archaeology, ancient history or world-traveler aesthetics.


Materials vary and have not been definitively identified. They appear to include stone or marble along with molded stone-look/composition-type materials. I have not identified individual makers or exact ages.


Condition: Vintage preowned condition with age-related surface wear, discoloration, marks and small imperfections throughout. The Colosseum has visible roughness/chipping or losses along portions of the upper structure. Other pieces have varying surface wear and patina. Please review all photos closely as they are an important part of the condition description.


Lot includes all 4 pieces shown.
