This morning was the release of the final string attached to our Annual Guatemalan Trip. We received our ticket refund for from Airline. A wave of regret hit us both and sadness for the Artisans and People of Guatemala who solely rely on tourism and trade from abroad to survive. Every year we buy from one family in Chichicastenango. We usualy place order before our arrival. Our goal is to buy from them again next month even though we won't be there to hug them in person.  So today I share with you some of the colors we have captured on past trips.

We will keep you all informed about pending Buy in coming months and share with customers first, via our Email list. You can sign up on our contact page or link at bottom of each page here at the website.

​Stay Strong everyone...

A great piece by the late maestro of Huichol Art, José Benitez Sánchez. Painting measures 23-1/2” squared. In good condition. Painting was poorly framed under glass and caused yarn/wax on edges to shift. Find it on our Huichol page.

Ted DeGrazia is quite the legend and iconic figure here in Tucson. His original works are highly desired and collected. Most rare can be the pottery he produced with his wife in the 1950's. This small bowl is signed and painted with a beautiful turquoise colored glaze on brown clay wash in the firing. Bowl measures 3-1/4" diameter and 2-1/2" tall. In excellent vintage condition.

Beautiful rare pink and burgundy striped Huipil with embroidered bird collar. From the Atitlán lakeside town of Santiago. Home to the infamous Maximón. Top was cropped at one time, most likely to accommodate a woman's Mayan attire. Would make a perfect beach or poolside top over swimsuit, or trim the backside and turn it into a cutoff top? Regardless, it's still a beaut. Front side is 19" long and back side is 29"-33" long. Open sides. Neck is 3" long and 8" wide. In Very good used condition.

​Early Angelica Vasquez Cruz figure done in Santa Maria Atzompa, Oaxaca.
