Gifts of Santos to the Buckingham Palace
When President Santos visited London, he presented these beautiful Mompox filigree pieces to the Queen and Duchess of Cambridge. It shows how significant this art is in Colombia. Now you have the opportunity to have jewelry like this, thanks to us. Ask for your custom designs.
Since the days of my childhood, I have always been enamored with Mompox, that quaint, picturesque little town where my paternal grandfather, a vallenato singer and an avid guitar enthusiast, was born. Through the internet, I would peruse photos of the town’s colorful colonial houses, which seemed like something out of a very old movie.
