The
Huichol Indians of Northwestern Mexico combine
a form of copal, a naturally occurring tree
pitch with tiny glass beads to line the inside
of gourd bowls which are then used as offerings
and gifts during pilgramages.
The technique is surprisingly fast. You will
easily finish one small bowl during this one
day workshop, as you learn this authentic
technique of bead inlay.
