Shaped by hand and meticulously hand painted, the Magellanic plover becomes a pair of ornaments. Discovered near the Straits of Magellan, the bird resembles a small gray dove. Guatemala's Mario Rodenas shares his love of birds through his family's ancestral art form. They arrive in a colorful cotton bag that evokes Guatemala's famous handloomed fabrics.
