What you’ll find

What Los Colores de la Tierra is known for

This family-run studio has spent over two decades pairing jade and Maya textile fragments with its own hand-fired ceramic beads, working with more than 35 artisans across three rural production groups to make each necklace or pair of earrings. The beads are shaped, kiln-fired, and hand-dyed in small custom-color batches at the Antigua workshop before final assembly at the two shops on Calle Oriente.
