Business description (provided by the business owner):

Hello my name is Gypsie Vasquez-Ayala and I am the proud (mama) owner of Arte Quetzal. We make one of a kind hand made jewelry. I have been making and designning jewelry since I was a teenager. The busines has been thriving for about 7 years now. I draw a lot of my insparation from participating in a traditional Aztec Dance group for the past 17 years and discovering my culture and ancestral roots. My jewelry is a mix of traditional indigenous style from Mexico, to a very contemporary style using crystals and natural gem stones. I also love working with stones and gems that come from around the globe to create a piece that incorporates a fusion of different ethnic cultures, such as a necklace that I just recently designed. It incorporated four lovely strands of fresh water pearls from Asia, jade from Guatemala and copper embellishments from India. We at Arte Quetzal gurantee all of our work and we welcome custom orders. Should anyone be interested in seeing some of the jewelry Arte Quetzal can come to you! How about hosting a jewelry party and recieving a generous discount on items that you like. Jewelry parties are a great way to aquire jewelry at a deep discount that requires some sales at the party! I provide a nice discussion about the stones and explain the healing properties of the stones and gems as well. I also do raffles so that participants have an opportunity to receive a free piece of jewelry!
You may contact me via email or call me to come and visit my humble studio here in Altadena. Or check out my website that is still under construction at this time, but you will get an idea of what we create here at Arte Quetzal.

Arte Quetzal is beautiful and Gypsie is a fabulous designer! I always get compliments on my jewelry from friends, co-workers, family, even strangers. Mom's are always so busy taking care of everyone else this is something to do for YOU. Instantly, the jewelry turns that regular outfit into something more attractive without taking any time at all. I LOVE my Arte Quetzal jewelry collection - thank you Gypsie!

I have several pieces of Arte Quetzal jewelry and I always get compliments when I wear it. The beautiful one of a kind art-wear is classic in design and can be worn with either casual or business attire. I am waiting for Gypsie to start making soaps and scrubs again!

I am the lucky owner of some of Gypsie's originals (earrings, bracelets, necklaces) and the pieces are truly exquisite! They can be dressed up or down, and I get compliments every time I wear one of her stunning creations. I am also a mama... and knowing the beautiful jewelry is lovingly crafted by a mama makes it even that much more special.
