Perfect Gifts!
Purchased these fun earrings as employee Christmas gifts for a mexican restaurant. The female employees often wear authentic, beautiful beaded earrings. Excited to introduce them to Adriana's work. We have a Frida theme as our logo. The beading is superb. Thank you Adriana for the perfect Christmas gift! Feliz Navidad!
I don't usually buy depictions of people, but...
I have a pretty substantial collection of folk art, and at the time that I purchased these, I had only four items in my collection which arguably depicted people. I tend to much prefer animals, plants, and geometric forms. However I really like Quipac's earrings and his page is one I check almost every month to see if he has new work. When I saw these, these struck me not so much as people as representations of a culture and a costume displayed in a beautiful geometric pattern. They were also on sale at the time! I got them, and have them displayed on a jewelry tree I also got from Novica, where they are accompanied by bats from Indonesia and some other work by the same artist depicting a leaf and a flower.
