Update 2020 Coronavirus

My it’s been a long time since I have paused long enough to keep you all informed of the latest news.  The Coronavirus has changed all of that. Have been in voluntary quarantine in the USA, separated from my immediate family, friends, carvers, etc., because of the Panama airport closure to all  international flights. First flight out is still a month away.

What is new? We keep innovating with new designs for our handcrafted shell cameos. Our Wounaan artists just keep getting better and better.  Take a look a this new design:



Peacocks are not native to Panama, but we like them anyway!

What else is new? We have been invited to participate in Dubai2020 as part of the Panamanian Pavilion,  which was supposed to open in October 2020 with a six month duration. The dates will probably change because of the Coronavirus, but we are excited at the prospect of our debut there, with a market we think will appreciate unique, exotic, rare designs such as ours.

Have a great day. Stay safe, stay healthy.
