native products of ILOILO

native products
when we visit places, one of the "must check" things is souvenirs... may it be something for someone or for oneself as a keepsake.
In Iloilo, we can find wide arrays of native products from accessories to bags and other useful stuffs. we can find these stuffs in malls but we always complain of its affordability. At the Central Market of Iloilo, Maria Clara St. there are few shops selling native products.
You can find wide arrays of accesories from earrings to anklets.prices range from P20-P50.
colorful and uniquely designed bags are also available, that comes in different shapes and sizes. prices range from P150-P350. mats are also available, prices range from P80-P150. Classy lamps and attractive wall decors made from shells that cost P75-P250. native hats, baskets, native slippers, ashtrays and other products made from native materials are also available at affordable prices. 

each artwork is uniquely created from patterns passed down through native generations and has reatined in the minds of Ilonggo craftsmen.
