In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of #obsidian, a volcanic stone of great historical and cultural importance. We had the opportunity to visit master craftsmen who have dedicated their lives to working with this stone, transforming it into true works of art. Mainly precisely carved figures, each piece reflects the skill and knowledge passed down from generation to generation.
The most special thing about this visit to my countrymen's workshop located in the town of El Potrero in #Taxco de Alarcón, #Guerrero was witnessing firsthand the process of making a craft from scratch. From the choice of obsidian to the delicate final cuts and polishes, we captured every stage of the artisanal work. The patience and talent of these masters were captured in every detail, revealing the magic behind their meticulous work.
Throughout the video, you will be able to see not only the creation process, but also the passion and pride with which these Taxco artisans work. More than just objects, their creations tell stories and preserve an ancestral tradition. This experience allowed us to appreciate even more the effort and dedication behind each piece of obsidian.
We hope you enjoy this tour as much as we did. If you like the video, don't forget to leave your comment, share it and support handmade art. Obsidian craftsmanship is a legacy that deserves to be appreciated and preserved. Join us on this adventure and discover the beauty of this ancient art!
