    I'm not sure if I've asked about this set of items before,I don't remember.Storage fine,2 heavy vintage terracotta figure sculptures.I don't see a name just a small paper,"Hecho En Mexico".One measure 17.5" 7.5"x5.5" tall and the second figure measure 15" tall and bottom 6"x8.5:Both are heavy.Any idea what items are.

    Is there a reason you believe those to be vintage? Could/would you post a photograph of the paper that says "Hecho en México?"

    I know they are quite large but the first thing I thought of when I saw them was chess pieces.

    They do look like chess pieces.

    That is a vintage sticker. 1960s/1970s-ish if I remember correctly.

    And now... Would you post a photograph of the M?

    I'll have to take your word for it. So, if chess pieces... The bishop is obviously what he is. She'd likely be meant to be La Malinche.
