Folclorico Collection – Mexican home accessories by Kitsch Kitchen
Mexico has a visual culture like no other. Bright colours, rich patterns, craftsmanship that goes back generations and a way of pouring all that beauty into everyday objects. The Kitsch Kitchen Folclorico collection is the most direct proof of that tradition. Products that are not simply inspired by Mexican folk art, but are genuinely part of it.
Mesh bags, ceramic bowls, tin hearts, wooden nichos and maracas. All objects with a story, a function and a look you will not easily find in an ordinary chain store.

Mesh bags: the woven net bag of Mexico
The Folclorico mesh bags are recognisable products in the Kitsch Kitchen range. Woven net bags in the colourful Folclorico style. A tradition from Mexico, where they are called ‘bolsas de malla’ and have been used at markets for generations.
There are three sizes: the mini fits in any bag as a foldable spare, the small (30x30) is ideal for groceries or beach gear and the large (40x40) is the roomiest option for when you really need to carry something. Light, strong and easy to fold. And so colourful that they can simply hang on a hook as a decorative object.
Besides the mesh bags there are also the Folclorico Frida bag and the Folclorico Lotería bag: larger bags with a Frida Kahlo and a Lotería theme respectively. Also see the other bags from Kitsch Kitchen.
Ceramic bowls: small, medium and large
The Folclorico bowls come in three sizes: small, medium and large. Handmade ceramics in rich Folclorico colours. Exuberant, warm and with the slight variations in glaze that belong to true craftsmanship. No two are exactly the same.
They are versatile: as a dish for tapas, sauces or snacks, as a decorative object on the kitchen counter or as an atmospheric addition to other Kitsch Kitchen tableware.
Tin hearts: Mexican folk art on the wall
The Folclorico tin hearts come in two sizes: small (12x9 cm) and large (18 cm). Cut-out tin hearts in the Mexican folk art tradition, a craft that has been practised in Mexico for centuries for religious and decorative purposes.
On the wall, on a shelf or as part of a larger Folclorico display: the tin hearts are compact, light and instantly recognisable as authentic Mexican handwork.
Wooden nichos: altar-like miniature cabinets
The Folclorico small wooden nichos assorted are small wooden cabinets in the tradition of Mexican nichos: miniature altars traditionally used for figures of saints or personal keepsakes.
Maracas: music as decoration
The Folclorico maraca 3 balls bring the sound of Mexico as a decorative object. Three colourful maraca balls on a stick. Use them as a musical instrument, but they look just as good as wall decoration or as a playful accent on a shelf.
They go well with the decorative accessories from Kitsch Kitchen and are also popular as a gift or souvenir.
Folclorico alongside other Kitsch Kitchen collections
Of all Kitsch Kitchen collections, Folclorico is closest to its Mexican source. If you love a strong Mexican accent, combine the collection with the Lotería collection.
