Chaquira Bracelet Set (of 2) - Red & Purple
$60.00
These bracelets were handmade with LOVE in Jalisco, Mexico by nine Wixáritari artisans. Each Chaquira (cha-kee-rah) Bracelet Set comes with two bracelet designs—our favorite symbol, the heart (of course) and the Wixáritari emblematic symbol, the Ojo de Dios.
The Ojo de Dios is the power to see and understand things unknown. This symbol represents prosperity and is still used to call on an abundance of water for a good prosperous farming season. It is also used as a form of protection from the ‘evil eye’ or negative energy sourced from the unknown. Each bracelet takes about two hours to make and the colors symbolize different meanings for the Wixáritari.
Each Chaquira Bracelet Set comes with two bracelets.
- Red + Purple Chaquira Bracelets |The red represents life of God in the East and the purple represents human life
MEXICO IMPACT
Ever since my first visit to Mexico as a child, I gravitated to all the colors and traditional folkloric designs. With every trip I’ve taken as an adult, I’ve been able to deepen my connection and understanding of Mexican culture. I’ve discovered the diversity that makes each region so special.
Every Corazón bracelet collection tells a story of agricultural, familial, political, and religious strength inspired by Mexican culture. It’s an honor to introduce you to our special artisan partners.
We believe in preserving cultural craftsmanship to keep their stories alive. Jobs created help support families and children's education.

We went on a wild journey and appeared on Shark Tank Because nothing says love like dragging your 70 years old mom out of retirement to help with operations and finances, I brought her on the show too! ;-)

We are the definition of a scrappy, big-hearted start-up always looking to meet the moment and jump in to help where we can. Powered by LOVE and a tribe of collaborators, mentors, friends, and a worldwide support system, Love Is Project exists. ♥
