Chaquiras are a unique kind of bead used in traditional arts throughout Latin America. The embroidery and chaquira artwork of the Wixáritari of Mexico's Sierra Madre Occidental mountain range is particularly famous, having made an appearance in New York's 2020 Fashion Week. There is some speculation as to the origins of the chaquira bead in the colonial period, while there is a common interpretation of the craft as representing a form of language predating the written word.
