*Matl was actually Senorita Matilde Eugenia Poulat.  She began making jewelry in 1934 and created pieces that featured delicate textured detailing and often used tiny coral and turquoise stones in them. Her jewelry has a very rich look and has been described as having “Mexican feeling without recourse to any definite Mexican motifs.” It has also been said that her work may be the most intricate to come out of the Mexican Silver Renaissance. Much of the “Renaissance” work was modernist – Matl’s pieces were definitely not modernist! See other auctions for Matl jewelry.
