Drawing on the rich imagery left behind in Incan architecture and works of art, Peruvian artisan Dina designs the handcrafted ceramic pendant of this intriguing necklace. Symbols in red, yellow, purple and green are hand painted on a gorgeous blue background; a lined tubular bead in similar colors sits atop the pendant which hangs from nylon cord.

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.

Evoking the sun whose worship affected many aspects of life for the Incas is this hand painted ceramic pendant from Peruvian artisan Dina. Sun rays in red, turquoise, yellow, and purple stream out from the center of the doughnut-shaped pendant which is also decorated with a ring filled with fretwork. Suspended from nylon cord, the divine pendant is topped with a tubular bead in light green.

The art of the ancient Incas serves as inspiration for this pair of ceramic pendant necklaces from Peruvian artisan Dina. Decorated with symbols and shapes that recall the ancient culture's architecture and textiles, the pendants are painted by hand using purple, yellow, red, and black colors against a white and blue background. Each pendant is crowned with a tubular bead painted with similar designs and tones and hangs from black nylon cord.
