Product Description
This round Aztec calendar tabletop wall plaque features a bold medallion format with dense, symmetrical detailing arranged in concentric rings. A stylized center face anchors the design, while radiating rays and star points create a sunburst effect that adds depth and energy. Outer rings are filled with symbol-like segments that give a true calendar presence, supported by layered natural wood tones for strong contrast and readability. Up close, the surface reads as a precision inlay build with crisp boundaries and careful repetition. The clean outer border finishes the disc without needing a frame, making it ideal as a tabletop centerpiece or a wall plaque that stands out on a simple wall.
