Hair jewelry, reflects the complexity of Mexico's history through
the blending of pre-Hispanic Mesoamerican civilizations and the culture
of Spain, imported during the Spanish colonization of Mexico, which
lasted for more than three centuries
the Aztecs and
Mayans created numerous works in goldl. and silver ans at the peak of their civilization, were making beautiful jewellery from jade, gold, silver, bronze and
copper. but the majority of their jewellery was made out of bone or
stone.
Rich deposits of silver , gems, and gold lured Europeans
throughout Mexico in colonial times, and led to the melding of Christian
images on jewelry with the characteristics of the ancient gods of native peoples
and even today mexican jewelry carry the richness of
religious and naturalistic forms transmitting the age-old ritual, protective,
or celebratory value..
Although silver itself is not exceedingly expensive, tin or base metal
washed with silver or various other substitutions are much cheaper and
Mexican jewelry is often made of these materials. "Alpaca" is a Spanish
term frequently stamped on jewelry indicating a durable, brilliant white
metal similar to so-called nickel silver.
