These detailed, hand strung beaded earringswere a delightfuldiscovery in a family owned shop in a community next to Lake Atitlan. The owners and the artisans areindigenous Kaquichel Mayans. They speak the Kaqchiquel language (not Spanish) in their home and amongst locals. All of their creations are inspired by local styles and the designs are born by the creative imaginations of the woman who meticulously craft each piece. We love the lace-like look of these earrings. You will lovedressing them up or using them to brighten anycasual outfit.
