Brown Sloth

Guatemalan artisan Mirian Zet crafts these dangle earrings from brown glass beads and sterling silver hooks, depicting cute baby sloths as they hold onto the branches of the rainforest. With the objective of creating jobs and opportunities for local women, Mirian dedicates herself to the creation of beaded jewelry in her small workshop, a traditional Guatemalan art that she learned from her grandparents while growing up near Lake Atitlan.
