Hand-beaded wonderful things in bright desert colors. Six foot iguanas, for instance. This is not an el-cheapo craft mart. This place is the real deal for amazing hand-crafted art and very nice silver jewelry. AND they sell Mexican wrestling masks, as well as a year-round selection of Day of the Dead/funeral fetishes for loved ones who have passed on.
The folks who work here are very patient with browsers. I looked at stuff in here for a couple years before I could bring myself to buy something -- resisting the impulse to buy the smallest, cheapest thing I could afford just to own something from a beautiful store.
I finally got my folks a really stellar six-inch-high reindeer in oranges and blues and blacks, and I paid $65, and although that almost priced me out of buying any other Christmas gifts, it was worth it. They love it.
I believe "Mixcoatl" is the original Aztec word for Mexico.
