Halloween

   Halloween: Bolivian Cloth Masks | Gourd Ornaments | Gourd Maracas | Peruvian Gourd Boxes

Textiles are an important part of Bolivian traditions. From childhood, the Bolivian people have learned to tend sheep and alpaca, spin weave and colorfully dye the fleece to make clothing, blankets, and carrying cloths. In this changing world, however, aymara traditions are falling into disuse as they search for identity in a culture that is being superimposed upon them. In an attempt to revive many of traditional techniques, as well as to express personal creativity, the artisans of "Artesania Sorata" are working together to present their artistic interpretations to the rest of the world.

These masks are very unique! Many of the products that we carry have a fair amount of variation, since they're works of art. This is especially true with these masks. We've shown a few of the masks so you can get a sense of them - there are MANY different designs and color combinations!

We carry handmade cloth masks in 2 sizes.

Large Bolivian Cloth Masks     $25.00

The large masks have a cloth piece on the back that sits on your head, like a cap. That's what keeps the mask on your head. The mask itself is about 13 or 14" high by about 9 - 11" wide. The cap part varies somewhat in size.

A shipment of Bolivian masks is on its way and we anticipate being able to send masks to you by Dec 1 or shortly thereafter.

Small Bolivian Cloth Masks     $21.00

These smaller masks utilize cloth ties to adjust the fit to size of your head. The cloth ties are about 14" long. These might be a better fit for folks with larger heads or fluffy hair because they are adjustable.

We have Peruvian gourds that are decorated with Halloween themes. Kids of all ages will enjoy these witches, bats and spiders! These gourds are about 2.5" in diameter, and are ready to hang.

Each of these gourds is individually decorated by artisans in Ayacucho, Peru. While these box decorations are fun for any time of the year, they'll be especially appropriate around Halloween!
