Fashionable Finds
Complete your wardrobe with fashions from Laura Lopez Labra Boutique. Children love apparel from The Art of Embroidery & Looms. Girls happily twirl in original dresses from El Rincon de Zoe.

Traditional Works
Deer, cacti, serpents, jaguars, peyote, and the distinctive "eye of Gods" make up Huichol Art's indigenous line. Woven bags, shirts, table runners, and small carpets are a must from Isabel Ramirez. She is a member of the Oaxaca-based Triqui Ribe tribe, and continues to honor her family's 500-year tradition of weaving. Music lovers go gaga over prehispanic musical instruments from Instrumentos Musicales Prehispanicos. And nothing says "eco-friendly" like 100% handcrafted brooms and brushes from Escobas Artesanales de Mexico.
