Artisan's Story: My name is Ramir Cortures from the Philippines. I had
lots of time as a child to draw and began to design handicrafts, then home decors and now I specialize in fashion
jewelry. Through my craft I am able to support my family – my parents, my brothers and sisters, my wife and my
children. My designs are inspired by nature and I enjoy using the beautiful and unique natural materials available
in the Philippines. |
