She gathers natural pine needles from the forests of Jalisco, cleaning them and carefully weaving them into a set of four rings. Their earthy good looks are a natural enhancement for any table.Hand-crafted item -- color, size and/or motif may vary slightlyAbout our Artist: I am Laura Villalvazo. I grew up in a forest community, surrounded by important wooded areas such as the Sierra de Tapalpa, del Tigre and Amula, which allowed me to be in contact with this amazing material; the ocoxal, also known as the pine needle. The dry needle-shaped leaf becomes so flexible due to its organic characteristics that it allows us to create an infinity of shapes, and articles of great durability and resistance with a pine scent. In my community, there is a group of people that works with different natural fibers such as ocoxal. They share their knowledge from generation to generation, and from those creative hands I learned how to transform ocoxal into extraordinary crafts. In this way, this line of inspirational, organic, aromatic and handmade jewelry arose. It is a family project that we started from a small improvised workshop in our home that has allowed us to create wonderful pieces from nature....
