Santa Clara del Cobre, Mexico
Abdon is one of the “titans” of hammered copper work in the village of Santa Clara del Cobre. His home and family workshop is down the street from the Museo del Cobre on the main street of town. Displayed on the steps leading up to his house are magnificent pieces of his artwork. Abdon has won countless first prize awards at the annual national copper competition. He works making very large, extremely difficult designs, and forming gorgeous smaller pieces out of fine silver. His busy workshop is always full of many members of his extended family forming gorgeous hammered copper vessels. The Angel family's last demonstration in the U.S. was about 10 years ago at the ABANA conference in Flagstaff, Arizona.
