Apu Mountain Silver Inlay Pendant

The Sacred Mountain, Crafted by Hand

This stunning oval pendant is a wearable work of art — handcrafted in Peru using traditional inlay techniques passed down through generations. The Apu, or sacred mountain spirit, is depicted here as a stepped chevron mountain rising from the earth — one of the most revered symbols in Andean cosmology. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, shaped from solid sterling silver 950 and filled with a mosaic of natural materials in vivid, earthy tones.

Materials

• Chrysocolla — rich teal-green forming the sky and bail accent
• Gold mother of pearl — warm, luminous tones shaping the mountain peak
• Red spiny oyster shell — bold, warm chevron bands at the base
• Purple spiny oyster shell — deep, rich tones woven through the stepped mountain layers
• Sterling silver 950 — higher purity than standard sterling, for a brighter, more refined finish

Dimensions

• Length: 1 1/2 inches (from bail)
• Width: 5/8 inch

Pendant only — chain not included. Because each pendant is handmade, slight natural variations in stone color and pattern make every piece uniquely yours.
