During the month of July, they are harvested from these trees, and the oil preparation begins by boiling cochinillas with water, then, the hot liquid is sifted with fine cloths, and then, this sifted liquid is boiled again, right until it evaporates all remaining water, leaving only a butter-like oil with a bright yellow color.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTizate is then ground into the Axe, and the artisans thoroughly mix them until they obtain a paste called “Zulaque”, which is used to fill and cover imperfections on the dried pumpkins (also known as Jícaras), as well as other wooden pieces. Bitter dried pumpkins are opened with a saw, giving it the shape intended for the piece, seeds are removed from the inside, and the body of the pumpkin is left soaking for 3 days, all before letting it dry for around 3 to 4 days. Once dried, the pumpkin’s body is then sanded both inside and out, using both the Axe and Tizate, the base for the piece is applied into 2 layers, usually called “capas”, the process can require the piece to have a total of 7 “capas” applied to it. The last layer is applied with cotton and rubbed until it becomes very bright and shiny. When the artisans are crafting a colorful piece, they will start applying pigment which is added to the soil and being applied to the piece, alternating both soil and oil, until the shine resembles that of the iconic black pieces they also craft.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe decoration of the pieces is applied once they are dry, using their fingertips and small cats-hair brushes.

The soil used in the application of their traditional lacquer, is called “Tizate” (A natural carbonate compound derived from Magnesium and Calcium).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThen “Axe”, an oil naturally obtained from “cochinillas”, small insects that live mostly in Prairie Acacia trees. During the month of July, they are harvested from these trees, and the oil preparation begins by boiling cochinillas with water, then, the hot liquid is sifted with fine cloths, and then, this sifted liquid is boiled again, right until it evaporates all remaining water, leaving only a butter-like oil with a bright yellow color.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTizate is then ground into the Axe, and the artisans thoroughly mix them until they obtain a paste called “Zulaque”, which is used to fill and cover imperfections on the dried pumpkins (also known as Jícaras), as well as other wooden pieces. Bitter dried pumpkins are opened with a saw, giving it the shape intended for the piece, seeds are removed from the inside, and the body of the pumpkin is left soaking for 3 days, all before letting it dry for around 3 to 4 days. Once dried, the pumpkin’s body is then sanded both inside and out, using both the Axe and Tizate, the base for the piece is applied into 2 layers, usually called “capas”, the process can require the piece to have a total of 7 “capas” applied to it. The last layer is applied with cotton and rubbed until it becomes very bright and shiny. When the artisans are crafting a colorful piece, they will start applying pigment which is added to the soil and being applied to the piece, alternating both soil and oil, until the shine resembles that of the iconic black pieces they also craft.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe decoration of the pieces is applied once they are dry, using their fingertips and small cats-hair brushes. The artisans impregnate their fingertips with the color pastes, and start forming the background colors for the flowers and their petals, after that, a cats-hair brush is used to make the detail and fine lines that embellish these pieces with extra shapes, flowers and borders.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAmong the most representative pieces made by these artisans, are pieces such as “Jicpestles”, Sewing Cases, Jewelry Cases, Folding Screens, Fruit Trays, and several other decorative items.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Artisan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cimg style=\"float: left;\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0008\/7582\/3167\/files\/Graciela-Diaz-Perez_large.jpg?v=1566431463\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGraciela Diaz Perez\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJoining their efforts, \u003cstrong\u003eGraciela Diaz Perez\u003c\/strong\u003e and her Husband Florencio, have been producing some of the most renown lacquer pieces.
