A handmade suede leather gaban featuring hand-painted and pyrographic Aztec imagery with a faux sheepskin lining. These leather ponchos, or gabanes, became popular souvenirs in the mid-20th century. This specific piece depicts the legend of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl, the star-crossed lovers of Aztec mythology who were transformed into volcanoes.
