Born in San Vicente, El Salvador, in 1961, Verónica Lemus grew up in a modest household guided by her grandparents. Though her professional life began in the corporate world, it was job loss that redirected her toward her true passion: artisanal creation. Starting with paper bead bracelets made from recycled magazines, she quickly developed a reputation for unique and eco-friendly jewelry. Entirely self-taught, Verónica honed her skills through trial, error, and experimentation, always guided by nature’s forms — leaves, flowers, and trees — as well as the world of fashion. Today, she handcrafts jewelry and home décor pieces using sustainable materials and inventive tools, including a homemade spindle for newspaper thread. Recognized with honorable mentions and seed capital awards, she continues to expand her practice with workshops that teach creativity through craft. Each piece reflects her commitment to artistry, environmental conservation, and gratitude for the support of those who value handmade design.
Handcrafted from recycled paper and waxed nylon cord, this adjustable bracelet measures 5 inches min L x 9.5 inches max L. The pendant measures 0.8 inches L x 0.7 inches W. The color, size, and motif may vary slightly.
