thank you, norma. i can wait until october for you to check with manuel reyes. do you know his price range? carolyn
Carolyn, the small pieces usually start at around 400-500 pesos. The larger pieces can go up to several thousand pesos. It’s a big range!
norma, would you be able to get a manuel reyes piece for me? i am interested in his hand. (i saw it on your site on feb 19, 2014). if yes, please let me know the price and the cost of shipping. thank you, carolyn
Carolyn, I saw Manuel Reyes on Saturday and he has returned to Yanhuitlan. I just got your request today. I won’t be going to visit him again until late October. Yanhuitlan is in the Mixteca, almost two hours from Oaxaca. I am sorry I won’t be able to help you with your request now, but when I go in October I will try to take photos and see what he has. I am sorry to disappoint you. -Norma
Norma! I would have bought that rug the two dimpled women were holding in a second!
Thanks for showing us what we missed! There’s always more
(thankfully) !
Hi Lynn, yes there are always more! This one is special– woven with gold threads, 22 threads per inch and a fine macrame border. If you want it it can find out cost, send you a PayPal invoice and get it to you by “friend courier” in mid August. It’s a wall tapestry. Not to walk on! Abrazos, Norma
Love my pineapple candles from Viviana Hipolito (Teotitlán del Valle) and am jones-ing for the perro by sculptor Manuel Reyes from Yanhuitlán. Kudos Norma for organizing the sale!
Shannon, come back. The Perro is still here. Thank you for supporting Velas Viviana. Mwah.
