This hand strung 24strand beaded necklace was a delightfuldiscovery in a family owned shop in a community next to Lake Atitlan. The owners and the artisans areindigenous Kaquichel Mayans. They speak the Kaqchiquel language (not Spanish) in their home and amongst locals. All of their creations are inspired by local styles and the designs are born by the creative imaginations of the woman who meticulously craft each piece. We love theshimmering, multi-strand look of this eye-catching necklace. You will lovedressing it up or using it to embellish casual outfits.
