I wear this all the time.

This is another piece that I wear in celebration of the day of the dead. It is very well made and durable.

Exquisite

The details on this bracelet are amazing. I can't wait to wear it with the other matador and flamenco jewelry I have by Maria Belen Nilson. Her work is fantastic.
