The realization of goldsmith with chaquira. It becomes a practice that is part of a legacy that persists within the indigenous Huichols of the country. This expression has been maintained, it is the historical heritage that accompanies the artisan in his community. Today, chaquira is sacred among the wixaritari. According to the Huichols, particularly women, "Chaquira means life." Although it seems somewhat strange, several of the accessories that are currently marketed have their origin Tuapuri, Santa Catarina Cuexcomatitán, where offerings such as candles, are symbolically washed with soap and chaquira necklaces, which are used as if they were a sponge . In this case, the accounts are associated with water droplets, symbolism that refers us to pre-Hispanic chalchihuites, also related to water and with the deities associated with this element.
