These bracelets were handmade with LOVE in Dolores Hidalgo, Mexico by four local artisans. The origin of ‘talavera’ art comes from central Spain, specifically from the city of Talavera de la Reina. The technique was brought over to Mexico and began to permeate artisanal culture when Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, a Spanish priest, leader in the Mexican war of independence, and the founding Father of Mexico, taught the making of talavera to locals. From start-to-finish, it takes about four days to create a Talavera Bracelet due to the clay molding, drying, baking, cooling, and painting process.
Within each Talavera Bracelet Set are three bracelets (red, blue, black).
In Mexico, a vibrant national movement of the arts has ignited to tell a much bigger story than a handmade bracelet. It's a story of agricultural, familial, political, and religious strength unique to Mexican culture.

Always fun! It's better to buy the bundle because they stand out more together. I only wish they were a bit longer to wear them as anklet but they're still beautiful!
