The Keepers of Traditional Crafts
Deep inside family-owned talleres across San Ángel and Coyoacán, fourth-generation maestros transform copal wood, barro negro clay, and natural cochineal dyes into timeless Mexican folk art.
In the quiet cobbled alleyways of San Ángel, down stone corridors behind wrought-iron gates, sawdust curls on old timber workbenches. Here, masters of Mexican folk craft continue generations of hand-carving traditions that date back centuries.
