Blue Hummingbird Wood Sculpture _artisan--novica-artisan-10837 After being turned down in

After being turned down in many places

Karen hill tribe artisans ingeniously weave silver to mimic the scales on a fish for this bracelet

Each bracelet closes with a brass bell as a button clasp

They considered the hammock to be like the loving embrace of a mother

Because each wall hanging is crafted by hand

Zeny and Reyna transform found pieces of copal wood into a delightful alebrije.

They take their name from a Cal gypsy word for 'something difficult, tangled, confusing or fantastic.' Copal Wood Signed by the artist Some assembly
