love pendant

By the Jalapa Girl Jewelsmiths of Guatemala, this pendant necklace makes the perfect gift for the loved ones in your life. A stone of natural rose quartz combines with a fine silver pendant that reads "Loved" on one one side and "Amado" on the other. The pendant centers a length of brown leather cord, which closes with a silver clasp accented with a charm. The artisan stamps her finger print on the charm.

Jalapa Girl Jewelsmiths is an organization dedicated to providing local girls with mentorship and artisanal skills during their formative years.

The Maya firmament was blessed with a privileged location that allowed them to see the galaxy's center and its harmonious pace, which guided them in every aspect of their lives. This unique way to connect nature and humanity resulted in the Mayan astrology sign, an ancient doctrine intended to identify each person's spiritual nature by looking at the stars.

As a way to wear your Mayan identity, Maura Parra from Guatemala creates this leather-cord nickel necklace for those born on the Tz'ikin day, the day of the “bird” in the nahual language. With a gorgeous quetzal bird and hands full of coins embossed in the round pendant along with the sign's name, the accessory represents the souls born with a connection to the universe's creator, making them naturally lucky and full of love to give.

As signs of heroism and symbols of courage, swords have always been associated with fearless warriors who defend their ideas and loved ones with determination. Inspired by the ancient swordsman tales, Balinese designer Putu Gede Darmawan teams with local artisans to create this sterling silver pendant necklace in a polished finish for a dapper look. The accessory also comes with a comfortable braided leather cord, adding a gallant aura.

Crafted of gleaming silver, a trio of lovely crescents centers this necklace from Mexico. Mikelo crafts the pendant and displays it on leather cord that is adjustable in length. He depicts a stylized bird with the sleek crescents that dominate this collection, which is inspired by the moon.

In addition to his creative designs, Mikelo gives each one a whimsical name. He names this one "El Ave Maria," which means both "The Bird Maria" and "Hail Mary" in Spanish.

Designed by Balinese artisan Henry Anthony Sanny, this men's bracelet brings an adventurous spirit wherever it goes. The bracelet circles the wrist with two cords of hand-braided black leather cord, centered by a sterling silver pendant that depicts the vegvísir.
