Details

Giant magueys spread their broad flat leaves to shelter and welcome the personages who dwell among the venerable plants. Working in polished sterling silver, Francisco Sánchez creates an image derived from Aztec codices. Yet he brings a fresh, new look to the design as he transforms it into a pair of hoop earrings.

“beautiful intricate work”

I absolutely love these earrings. They look great-unique-intricate. They have a combination folk/clean modern appeal. I haven't taken them off since they arrived. New favorites.

“Birds of Charm and Whimsy”

Me encantan los pajaros mexicanos. I just love these whimsical birds reminiscent of the folk art of Mexico. Very charming with a touch of the richly colored blue drops that attract the eye without being gaudy. Elegant but not formal so the earrings are very versatile.

Enjoyment and whimsy
