A mine in the distance, they were peppered throughout the countryside, the last mine, the Angustias-Dolores, closed in 1927. |
A beautiful ruin, the silver mines and ghost towns of Pozos. |
The walls were built to last, at one time this area was very wealthy with a thriving population, by 1950, the population was just over 200. |
Where the wood burning stove was. |
I couldn't resist bringing some of the pieces I found for the shop to Pozos for an impromptu photo shoot. |
This woven bracelet is from the Amazon, and is used to protect your arm when using a bow and arrow. |
Magnificent landscape. |
Another for the catalog/postcard- Oaxacan hand loomed indigo dyed poncho. |
Another piece from Oaxaca, a hand loomed and embroidered Huipil. |
A former tourist attraction, no longer in business, when we went to the mines, we were the only ones there. |
The beautiful town, sun faded colors. |
