Chakana Mosaic Silver Inlay Pendant

A Celebration of Andean Symbol and Color

This bold round pendant is a wearable mosaic of Andean culture — handcrafted in Peru using traditional inlay techniques passed down through generations. A diagonal grid of Chakana (Andean cross) motifs fills the entire disc face, each cross set within its own geometric field of vivid natural stone and shell. The result is a kaleidoscope of warm reds, deep purples, teal greens, and golden cream — earthy, striking, and entirely one-of-a-kind. Shaped from solid sterling silver 950 and finished with a polished silver back stamped 950.

Materials

• Red spiny oyster shell — warm, bold reds throughout the mosaic
• Orange spiny oyster shell — rich amber-orange tones
• Purple spiny oyster shell — deep violet sections
• Chrysocolla — rich teal-green inlay
• Sodalite — deep blue accents
• Gold mother of pearl — soft golden-cream sections
• Sterling silver 950 — higher purity than standard sterling, for a brighter, more refined finish
