classy bracelets

Beautiful in blue, this delightful bracelet is centered by a heart Edith Orozco recreates motifs from Mexico's classic Talavera ceramics. A graceful swallow soars amid swirling brushstrokes known as plumeado, or "feathered" on a beautiful bracelet. The papier mache pendant is protected by a coat of lacquer and centers dark blue cords that are adjustable in length.

Celebrating Mexico's vibrant artistry, Edith Orozco crafts a papier mache bracelet that captures attention. Inspired by the classic Sacred Heart motif and encased in a protective lacquer, the pendant features a hummingbird design expertly painted by hand. Boasting a 14k gold-plated copper chain, this unique creation is further adorned with bright glass beads for an extra touch of charm.

The Talavera style tells a story of cobalt blue hearts in this beaded link bracelet by Mexico's Juana Ponce. Inspired by the region's classic artistry, Juana uses ceramic to create the heart-shaped pendants that compose the design—joined by 14k gold-plated brass accents. Crystal beads complete the piece with an enchanting touch.
