Mexican Folk Hearts

Our true love of Mexican Folk Hearts started in San Miguel de Allende, MX, a colonial town known as "El Corazón de Mexico" or "The Heart of Mexico," home to a vibrant community of artesanos. As collectors of Mexican Folk Art and boutique shop owners, we have a passion for supporting artesanos that represent Mexican culture.
In this pictorial book, we introduce our personal collection & inspirations of cultural-themed folk hearts from various regions of Mexico, classified as "Arte Popular" or "Popular Art for the People." We have curated this collection based on our travels throughout Mexico.
