peruvian filigree earrings

Symbolizing the union of the spiritual and mortal worlds, the chakana cross originates from several pre-Hispanic cultures, including the Inca. Paola Siza of Peru pays homage to the chakana, handcrafting it with intricate sterling silver filigree in this pair of dangle earrings. Each cross is set with a round stone of natural chrysocolla in the center, evoking the green valleys of the Andes.
