Ignacio Punzo Angel is the best artisian from Santa Clara del Cobre Michoacan in Mexico. The town is part of the Pátzcuaro region of Michoacán, and ethnically dominated by the Purepecha people. These people have been working with copper since the pre-Hispanic era, and led to this town’s dominance in copper crafts over the colonial period (1519–1821) until well into the 19th century. Most of the town\'s population (82%) its employed on making copper crafts, there are 250 registered workshops but only 2 of them have been inducted in to the \"Great Masters of Mexican Folk Art\" collection by Fomento Cultural Banamex, one of them its the one own by Ignacio Punzo Angel and his sons. Ignacio\'s studio its maybe the only one in Santa Clara del Cobre that also has pieces of Silver. This its because thanks to his level of craftsmanship he has developed a base of collectors and Museums that are able to afford such beautiful items.
