These elegant, ornate earrings recall vintage jewelry from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. The style, featuring traditional motifs like birds, flowers and leaves, is still popular among the Mazahua women in the states of Mexico, Michoacan and Queretaro. Their handcrafted earrings reflect region's traditional motifs like birds, flowers and leaves. Working in sterling silver from Taxco, Roy Nilson crafts antique-style chandeliers with lovebirds that alight above textured blossoms that host polished teardrops.

"This ring is beautiful"
I bought this for my horse loving niece. It is scary purchasing things online that you cant touch or see. This ring is so much prettier in person. I just love it. Thank you so much I know that my niece will love it too.

"An incredible work of art!"
This handcrafted cuff bracelet just arrived today. I can truly say the photo of this item does not do it justice. When I first opened the package my first thought was WOW! Such detail! The design is so spectacular! I couldnt wait to slip it on... Roy Nilson craftsmanship is a pleasure to behold. I especially loved the composition of the dancing couple. Viewing them puts a smile on my face! They are so precious! But most of all I love the passion Mr Roy put in his creation. I can see the love for his culture through his art. My family is from Mexico, as well. So I can relate to his passion.... This is one of three items I purchased from him, and I plan to purchase more in the future. Needless to say, Ive become a huge fan. Mr Roy, thank you for the honor to ware your gorgeous artwork!
