MEXICO IMPACT
Mexico’s cultural heritage is woven deep within the country’s fabric. After the Mexican Revolution, a new generation of artisans emerged blending native culture with Spanish influence. As a result, a vibrant national movement of the arts ignited that tells a much bigger story than a handmade bracelet. Every bracelet in our Mexico collection tells a story of agricultural, familial, political, and religious strength found in Mexican culture.
