A course by Caralarga
Although Caralarga's DNA is 100% Mexican, the idea for this handcrafted jewelry studio was born in Hong Kong, where co-founder Ana Holschneider's eyes were opened to the potential of the traditional artisanal practices of her homeland. Back on Mexican soil, Ana met María del Socorro Gasca, an artisan from Querétaro specialized in jewelry-making, and together they founded Caralarga.
Through their designs, the duo seeks to preserve the essence of natural materials by transforming them into high-quality handcrafted jewelry in a contemporary style.
