creative bracelets

In pink and grey, nylon cord is used to hand-macrame seven bracelets with a bohemian style. Promoting rural artisans in Guatemala, Wakami presents this set of bracelets, each of which features a unique design. Some close with metal buttons and others feature adjustable sliding knots. According to Wakami, these bracelets represent the history of Guatemala; the creation of the sun, the stars, water, air, plants, animals, as well as children are each signified by a different bracelet.

Braided by hand, strands of nylon cord in deep rose circle the wrist. Guatemalan artisan Mirian Zet draws inspiration from Mother Nature as she creates this adjustable bracelet, which is accented with glass beads.
