Errant Handcrafting of different kind of Jewelery with precious raw Stones and metals. The name of the energies are called Nahuales. Ref.

In the sacred Mayan Calendar, there exists twenty energies of which ten are cosmic and ten are telluric. The Nahuales represent different qualities and characteristics as analogies to describe the movement of cosmic energy. The Nahuatl Batz is one of the first energies that represents the beginning of the universe, when the creator and former of everything threw the string of time into space and i

t began to loop and begin an infinite spiral. The energy Batz within this analogy represents the beginning,the creation,the creativity, and the art The artisan is the one that continued in the footsteps of his first ancestors.The totem o animal is that which represents the energy of the monkey.This energy is related to that of the first divine inhabitants of our time. Jun Batz and Jun Chowen, twins were transformed into monkeys as punishment from the gods for their egocentric behavior and for lack of appreciation of the creative gifts they had been given. Popol WuJ, The book of Mayan Mythology

Manos de Mano( Hands of the monkey) is the name and the platform to showcase the art that I have been making during my process of learning as an artisan. En el calendario sagrado Maya existen 20 energías de las cuales diez son cosmicas y 10 telúricas, estas energías son llamados nahuales. Los nahuales representan analogícamente diferentes cualidades y caracteristicas del movimiento de energía cosmica. El nahual Batz es una de las primeras energías que representan el inicio del universo, cuando el creador y el formador del todo lanzaron el hilo del tiempo hacia el espacio y este hilo dió un giro y empezo a enrollarse en un espiral infinito. Así el Batz con esta analogía representa el inicio, la creación, la creatividad, el arte, el artesano, el artista que sigue el ejemplo de sus primeros ancestros. El totem o animal que representa a este nahual es el mono por estar relacionado a dos de los primeros habitantes divinos del espacio/tiempo materializado, Jun Batz y Jun Chowen gemelos que fueron transformados en monos como castigo de los dioses por engrandecerse de sus dones de creación y por su soberbia. Manos de Mono es el nombre y la plataforma para mostrar el arte que he ido creando en mi proceso de aprendizaje como orfebre.

A quick look into the sand casting process.

I’ll be teaching this technique this Friday, guiding you through the full process: creating a model, packing it in sand, casting the metal, and finishing the piece so it’s ready to wear.

If you’ve been curious about this process, I’d be happy to have you in the class.

A few spots still available, DM me for details

This Friday I’m opening up an another small sand casting workshop in the studio.

It’s a hands-on session where you’ll make your own ring from scratch, in wax and finishing in metal.

I’m keeping it very small (max 4 people), so it feels more like a guided, intimate experience.

If you’ve been curious about the process, this is a good moment to try it.

DM me if you have any questions or book your spot online in the link on my bio.

New pieces, handmade in the studio 💘
Just in time for Valentine’s.

This batch includes stud versions of Smile Now / Cry Later, inspired by the Chicano culture that surrounds me here in Barrio Logan, plus a few returning designs like the Las Manitas (Frida Kahlo–inspired), which I first made back in 2016 and am now bringing back in a new run.

For now, these pieces are available directly through me,via DM or in person. I’ll be at the studio Saturday and Sunday if you’d like to stop by and pick something up while supplies last.

They’ll be added to the website later, but this is the first chance to get them.

Last sand casting workshop in the studio.

We started from wax, carving and building chunky ring designs, playing with form and weight. One piece was even shaped directly with a torch to give it a more organic feel.

From there, we made the sand molds, melted the metal, and poured it, always the most exciting moment. Watching a piece go from an idea to solid metal never gets old.

Everyone left with a ring they made by hand, and I’m always grateful to share this process.

More workshops are coming. If you’re interested in joining a future class, send me a DM and I’ll add you to the list.

Bronze is included. There’s also an option to upgrade to silver.
