ABOUT US


PUQUIO ACCESSORIES
Jewelry and Accessory Design


Puquio is a Quechua word which means “spring”.

"The drought took a long time, and everybody had forgotten the feeling of water running over the body, overflowing between the rocks, getting between the toes. 
One morning the rain came, and everyone ran for cover. They couldn´t remember it…
Only one person left, and his feet began to move to the rhythm of the raindrops. He filled his mouth with this water, and laughed, and laughed, and laughed...
Seeing it, everybody came out and began a dance that filled them with joy. And the water never dried, and then many Puquios emerged everywhere, and the dance never ended. "

Puquio is a festival of joy, color and shamelessness, born from the need to create, as basic as water, and as endless as a spring.
You will never get bored of using our designs, because every piece is as unique as you are.
