Lattice Collar Necklace (Midnight Blue) – San Pablito, Puebla

£32.00

Lattice Collar Necklace Midnight Blue – San Pablito, Puebla

Handcrafted by Moisés in San Pablito, Puebla, this striking lattice collar necklace is made from iridescent chaquira beads woven in the Otomí style — the heritage and language his family proudly preserves.

The open diamond lattice weave creates a beautifully airy, lace-like collar that shimmers between deep navy and forest green depending on the light, giving it an almost jewel-like quality. The process takes three careful steps and between five to eight hours to complete, requiring patience, precision, and dedication.

Each necklace is a tribute to Mexican craftsmanship, passed down through generations.
