Pluma Azteca Los Castillo






I believe Los Castillo is the only workshop that does the Pluma Azteca technique really well. I have seen other pluma azteca pieces but not marked by Los Castillo. The technique is really quite different using feathers much the pliqueajour (sp) of the Europeans.

Pluma Azateca is frequently mistaken for enameling - why? I couldnt say - clearly its not.

So keep your eyes peeled for your Los Castillo find.
