Sterling Silver Floral Skull Pendant Necklace from Mexico, "Calavera la Comadre"
Known as calavera la comadre, or "midwife skull," the pendant of this necklace is crafted from sterling silver.

"My favorite bracelet"





This is my favorite bracelet. The craftsmanship is unparalleled with exceptional attention to detail. It is made of Taxco silver, some of, if not the best, silver in the world. The metal molds to your wrist with ease. The bracelet is just the right size for a woman and goes with almost any outfit, casual or formal. I most highly recommend purchasing Aztec Waves.
