Her designs for jewelry and religious figures were part of the new cultural vision among Mexico’s intellectuals after the Revolution when they sought a new Mexican aesthetic. All Matl designs were executed by accomplished silversmiths under her exacting direction. After her death, her nephew, Ricardo Salas, continued the Matl-Salas line until his death in 2006.
