Huichol

We met these people from the Huichol native American group. They are famous for the intricate and colorful bead work. Each piece is unique.
They live north of Puerto Vallarta in the state of Nayarit. They were initially very reluctant to appear in a picture. My wife was the perfect way to start a friendly chat and make this happen. We received good wished for health after this.

such beautiful garments - thx for sharing these.

Beautiful beadwork, and you did very well with presenting the fine craftsmanship of these people. Really like the first one where it looks like he is explaining something to someone.
