Ethnic Crafts from the Huichole
Indians, who live in the rugged mountain ranges of the States
of Jalisco and Nayarit, have come to be extremely appreciated
because of their aesthetic value. Unique to Mexico, born from
their rich traditions, the Huicholes beaded votive gourds make
delightful cups for your desk, a place to set your keys and loose
change, a place you will always remember where to look, and they
are true art pieces in their own right. Gourds come in all diameter
and are typically covered in bright, Nature oriented themes.
Also made are beaded boards typically decorated in Native characters
depicting stories or complete scenes. |

made, and very attractive, colorful art pieces and when framed
will add a flair of authentic Indian culture to any Western decor
or restaurant setting and will certainly accent open, airy rooms
with tile or brick flooring. An even more unique item are the
carved Huichole beaded wooden masks. There is a waiting list
for them but we can get them with our friendship with the artisans. |

We enjoy all Huichole items and
keep them in stock but for the masks; the beaded gourds are very
popular and the Huichole boards are not that easy to locate,
but we have them, and we can get the masks. E-mail us to order and include your sizing and color preferences.
We also have very many beautiful and well done beaded bracelets
and necklaces. |
If you do not see it, ask us, impossible to show everything.
