Huichol Essence

Mexico's Ana Maria González honors Huichol art with the design of this jewelry box. The multicolored composition captures the essence of the Huichol cosmogony including Werika the eagle hailed as the Huichol mother, and the deer, regarded as their brother. He is the intermediary between humans and deities. González masters decoupage techniques on a pinewood jewelry box featuring a floating deck that is perfect for earrings.
