Does anyone know if there's a name for these? Does anyone have any ideas about their country of origin? I have several pieces like this, and they're FAVORITES! Especially my monkey earrings, wearing earrings! I bought some in Puerto Vallarta Mexico, but I know that in a tourist city like that, there are a lot of imported items out there. Are they originally from Mexico? Or Peru, possibly? I hope someone can solve the mystery!
They're made of copper forms and accented with twisted wire, which is soldered on. I've seen skeleton necklaces like this, too, and wish I'd bought the one I saw in Mexico!

Mexico...I'm not sure what the necklace is but the small ones are monkeys.
I've only seen them for sale in the Yucatan.
They are very cheep/ affordable
I love mine and they hang all over my boat.

Thank you for the comment about their origin being in Yucatan! I guess my title wasn't clear! I meant what type of work these are, if there's a name for them and where they originated--not what creatures they are. It's obvious to me they're a pair of monkeys and a crab, so that's OK! Anyone know what you call these and where to find them for purchase? Thanks so much!
