original men gifts

Gallant leather braids form a comfortable accessory directly from Guatemala. Artisans Erick and Ivania craft this elegant bracelet, adding a natural coconut wood button that completes the design's natural aura and also allows for an adjustable length.

Since the ancient times of the Maya, the jade stone has often been associated with vitality and eternity. This distinguished gem is now part of a dapper design crafted by Erick and Ivania from Guatemala. The artisans, inspired by the ancient Maya legends, center the jewel in this black nylon pendant bracelet, whose mint cotton accents match the jade's refreshing hue.

In addition to their aesthetic charm, diffuser bracelets can also incorporate essential oils, offering the benefits of aromatherapy. Guatemalan artisans Erick and Ivania create this splendid design for men by threading onto a cord lava stone, pinewood and carnelian beads. Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the lava beads and enjoy their soothing aroma all day. Carnelian is believed to help balance the first and second chakras, further contributing to your vitality and well-being. Thanks to its sliding knot closure, you can adjust this fabulous bracelet to your liking.

With this inspiring nativity scene Jose Canil Ramos preserves a tradition that began in Guatemala on Christmas of 1649. Back then, Holy Brother Pedro de Betancourt set up a nativity scene he had brought with him from the Canary Islands in Tenerife. In Canil's original version, the Three Wise Men bring a pineapple, a watermelon and a chicken as gifts from Guatemala. Ramos carves each figurine by hand from pinewood that was weathered and dried during the summer months. The characters' florid robes are painted by hand, and they stand on brown wood bases. Archangel Gabriel's wings are detachable. Including the bed, ox and donkey, this nativity set features 10 pieces.

This on-trend bracelet is the original creation of Costa Rican artisan Xiomara Valverde. She crafts the bracelet from tan faux leather, adding a gleaming stainless steel clasp.

Representing the exotic flora of Costa Rica, a splendid hibiscus blossom adorns this original design. The Chaverri Brothers transform a scrap piece of precious teak wood it into a bookmark. They carve mora, a kind of wild blackberry wood, in the silhouette of the beautiful tropical flower.
