ABOUT CARLOS:

Oaxaca born filigree master artist Carlos Gutierrez comes from a family of filigree artists & was actually taught by his jeweler father whose jewelry just happens to be in the book of "Oaxaca Masters"..His father taught him to work in both gold & sterling & Carlos was the only one (out of 10 children) in his family who 'got it' & was taught the hard way,by his pieces being stomped on the floor by his father if they weren't done right..His father would say "Now do it over! And "Never make anything,if you can't make it perfect"! THIS is what helped him to learn..

He started at the young age of 15 & now in his 50's,he got to be so good at that young of age, that he ended up supporting the whole family just on the "art" of making jewelry. He is such a pro at the most precise filigree,that when he moved to the USA,he was employed & worked under the direction of fellow Oaxaca friend & worldwide designer "Federico Jimenez".

I remember being told one time by one of Federico's people "Carlos is the best"..Even they had to admit it.He was one of Federico's top filigree artists & made many of Federico's Oaxaca Filigree/Dove pieces that were being produced some years back.There's literally nothing you can't put in front of this artist,that he can't make...
