Mexican Textile Artist, Painter & Founder of Casbah

Glincey is a visionary Mexican textile artist and painter, dedicated to the art of handmade, artisan craftsmanship for over 20 years. Her journey began with a deep passion for textile arts, leading her to master techniques like macramé, barrel wrapping, crochet, and loom weaving. In 2013, she expanded her expertise by completing a 300-hour Master Macramé Workshop in Dharamshala Bhagsu, India, followed by a 300-hour Master Yoga and Meditation course in Rishikesh, India, which further enriched her creative and spiritual perspective. Her work has been exhibited in places like Mexico City, Valle de Bravo, Dubai, Zihuatanejo, and now finds a home in Troncones, Guerrero. In 2002, Glincey and her best friend and business partner, Alberto, co-founded Casbah, a boutique and creative space in Troncones, Guerrero. Their shared vision was to create a place where handmade, locally crafted, and artisan pieces from around the world could be cherished. Over the years, Casbah has grown into a hub for traditional craftsmanship fused with contemporary design, offering handmade bohemian furniture and artisan clothing, boho-chic decor, and custom macramé wall hangings. Glincey specializes in all macramé designs, crafting one-of-a-kind pieces tailored to each client’s vision. Whether designing minimalist, neutral-toned pieces or bold, colorful creations that reflect the character of her client’s homes, her work brings character and warmth to any space. In 2023, she expanded Casbah Troncones by opening its own gallery, providing a platform not only for her own work but also for local and international artists to showcase their creations. Through Casbah, Glincey continues to live her dream—connecting makers and art lovers, celebrating the beauty of handmade, slow-crafted, and unique artisan pieces. Whether you’re looking for a handmade macramé wall hanging, handwoven textiles, or meaningful artisan decor, Casbah is a true destination for those who appreciate authenticity and craftsmanship.
