Andean Cross Pendant

Description

The Andean Cross Pendant is a modern reinterpretation of the "Chakana," an ancient symbol of the southern hemisphere. Hand-carved from a single block of premium Lapis Lazuli, the pendant is capped with a minimalist 18k gold bale. The deep blue stone represents the underworld and the heavens, while the gold bale signifies the sun that feeds the earth. This piece is as much a spiritual talisman as it is a luxury accessory. Each pendant is unique, as the natural white calcite and golden pyrite veins create a one-of-a-kind map on the surface of the cross. It is a profound way to wear the history of the Andes, connecting the wearer to the ancestral wisdom of the Chilean highlands.
