Fodor's Review:

This tiny shop tucked away in an arcade is filled with delights for both boho chicks and collectors of singular ethnic jewelry. Complex, chunky necklaces with turquoise, amber, and malachite—all based on original Araucanian (ethnic Argentine) pieces—and Mapuche-style silver earrings and brooches are some of the offerings. Sharon Stone and Liv Ullman have fallen for Florencia Bernales's knitted silver necklaces; other happy customers include Pedro Almodóvar and the Textile Museum in Washington, D.C. Weavings and religious wooden statues complete the finds.
