"I've worked with you since 2017. These years have been enormously surprising and have improved my income.
"I began creating amber jewelry from a young age, and it is as beautiful as my village. When I first started working with you, improving my quality was a challenge, but you helped me see how each detail could be used to make a stupendous piece of jewelry. Sharing the details of this beautiful tradition has been a challenge, from the extraction of amber to polishing and working the stone, transmitting the value of the jewelry to each shopper who is pleased with my work.
"When I saw that I could make a living through my art, I said 'Now, I've made it.' Seeing the result of my work pleases me greatly. I don't work all by myself — members of my family also help. And, when a piece is sold, it carries a part of them too.
"You have helped me sustain my family in an incredible way. They tell me that I'm the most successful artisan in Chiapas. I always participate in amber expos, and I am proud that amber is the source of my income."
Original Artisan Story
"I was born and raised in a small Maya town in Chiapas. From the time I was 14, I've crafted jewelry in silver and amber. My parents taught me. While I was learning, I'd practice with a piece of charcoal to shape it like a gem and polish it. This was something I really enjoyed doing.
"My workshop is in my home and, like my parents did, I'm teaching my children. I like seeing my family help in the workshop. My children polish the silver, my wife does some designing and also sets the gems while I cut and shape the amber. As I work, I imagine how the design will look when it's finished. I have to be careful not to cut myself with the sharp diamond blades.
"My feelings while working inspire me to express this in my designs. Other times, I craft jewelry that is seasonal or that sells well.
"People in my community have worked with amber for many, many years. Southeastern Mexico has a number of amber mines. Once I visited one of them. We descended for more than 600 yards when I began feeling as though I couldn't get my breath. I was getting desperate and tried to run out, but I slipped and fell all the way back down. It was terrifying! Today, I laugh about it. Actually, it's memories like this that make me enjoy my work.
"For me, the growth of my community is a priority. I like to help other artisans all I can and lend materials to neighbors who are jewelers. I also purchase the amber from mines in the area. My greatest wish is to send my children to college but, at the same time, I encourage them to continue the family's jewelry arts."

I love this amber bracelet. It's a yellow tone. Although it's plastic wrapped it wears nicely.

BenjaminThis is a well made article
I have this and it is still something I like to wear when I purchased 2 years ago. I recommend it for the quality and handcraft. Very well made.

PatsieVery nice!
i bought this as a gift for my 13 year old granddaughter. it is exactly as pictured. The amber is a beautiful golden color and somewhat transparent. The cord is waxy and helps the bracelet keep its shape. She was able to easily adjust it (I wasn't!) I loved it and so did she. I would definitely wear this bracelet myself. Well made and very attractive.

LidaNice, casual looking bracelet with a lovely handma
Love the look of this braided bracelet. Only slight negative is that it is a bit difficult to tighten the 2 ends when it is on your arm, using your other arm to do so. Also, it feels a little waxy (perhaps intended to be) would have preferred a somewhat softer feel But still a very nice piece!

PatriciaExactly what I wanted!
This bracelet is sturdy and well-made. The amber stones are beautiful - small and delicate but large enough to be noticed, a nice bright transparent gold color. Easy to put on and take off. Great saturated black color, nice match with the stones. Love it.

MariaVery Well Done
I bought this as a gift for my best friends boyfriend?who is a tall lumber jack type?and was afraid this would not fit him, but the adjustable sizing is great! This fit over his large hands and secured around his thick wrist. And he loved it! The amber was lovely. Packaging was lovely. Well worth the price.
