Another for the collection
Mauricio is a skilful and dedicated artist and a truly delightful man. We have visited Guatemala on a number of occasions and have visited his stall each time - he is a warm and caring man who deals with his customers as friends. Each visit has been a treat. Being able to add to our collection through NOVICA from an armchair in the UK is an extra bonus.
Exquisite Gift
This book is a treasure! Far more impressive than the photograph for the quality of care in every aspect of its construction. I got it as a gift for my partner as he tells wonderful stories of his childhood. Though he does not journal, I encouraged him to use this beautiful book to write those stories that they may be enjoyed by his children and perhaps grandchildren some day. I am an artist in the US, graduated from a well known art college. Freshman year, the Calligraphy class required that we create a book from scratch, including end papers, binding, cover etc. It took a month of serious effort and I am proud of my creation, but easily admit that this book far exceeds my own. It is simply beautiful.
