These earrings are a classic Mexican style known as "abanicos" in Mexico and locally in the Yucatan as "pantalla" which translates to "fan". Carlos Ramos is the artist who created the filigree. Sr. Ramos has created filigree pieces for Pope John Paul, the cardinals of Mexico, the crown prince of Japan, President Bush and Princess Caroline of Monaco. His father was featured in the book, "Great Masters of Mexican Folk Art". Sr. Ramos continues the tradition today of creating masterpieces in filigree.
