God's Eyes - Page 2
God's Eyes aka Ojo de Dios originated from the Huichol tribe in the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico. The Huichol call their God's Eyes Sikuli, which means "the power to see and understand things unknown."
When a child is born, the central eye is woven by the father. Then one eye is added for every year of the child's life until the child reaches the age of five.
Our God's Eyes are beautifully designed and handcrafted by Julia Nava. She is an exceptional Apache artist and has been professionally making and selling her craftwork for almost 40 years. She hand signs each piece of her work with a description of the meaning of each God's Eye. A woman with a gracious and gentle spirit.
These exquisite God's Eyes are beautiful either individually or when grouped together in a setting of multiple God's Eyes. Either method creates a beautiful arrangement. Also, each God's Eye is a one of a kind design and no two are ever the same. When you purchase any of her designs, you have a quality-made heirloom, which can be passed on from generation to generation.
