With the style of her designs, artisan Dina wishes to give a fitting expression to the legacy of the Incas of her native Peru. She presents an artisan crafted ceramic pendant necklace hand painted in beautiful jewel tones. Fuchsia, green, and purple combine with the gold and black tones of the pendant which features geometric shapes recalling Inca iconography; a symbol of the sun, the heavenly body at the core of the Inca's religious beliefs, sits at the center of the doughnut-shaped pendant which is topped with a bead painted in similar hues.

Peruvian artisan Dina likes to evoke the ceremonial garb worn by ñustas, ancient Inca princesses, in her designs. She presents this artisan crafted ceramic pendant in a regal green color decorated with Inca-influenced geometric symbols in fuchsia, copper, red, black, and turquoise. A barrel-shaped bead painted with blue, yellow and red lines is strung through the necklace's nylon cord and rests atop the pendant.

Signifying a union between the spiritual and the corporeal, a pre-Hispanic chakana cross in yellow is crafted of ceramic to center this necklace from Peru. Dina designs the necklace, adorning the wearer with earth-tone ceramic and gold-tone beads, closing with a fold-over clasp of sterling silver.

An admirable hand painted pendant in copper and black tones hangs from nylon cord in this necklace designed by Peru's Dina. Artisan crafted, the ring-shaped ceramic pendant has a design reminiscent of the geometric motifs found on Incan textiles and pottery. A finishing touch is provided by the copper and black striped bead at the top of the necklace.

Painted by hand, starlight and moonbeams cover a sleek black medallion. Dina crafts a beautiful necklace inspired by ancient Inca art. Gleaming silver accents complement the handmade ceramic beads.
