These three little bracelets are made with a carved Chakana of light green Serpentine stone. The Chakana or 'Inca Cross' is a hugely symbolic ancient design. There is so much meaning packed into every Chakana. A representation of the Inca cosmovision, most notably, the Three Worlds:

Hana Pacha – Heaven: the upper world, light sophisticated energy. The stars, divine creatures, and Gods. The Andean Condor 🦅

Kay Pacha – The earth: This world, light and heavy energy, here and now, Mother Earth. People’s lives. The Puma 🐆

Uqha Pacha – The Underworld: Heavier energy, but not Hell, may be lucky, beautiful things. Death. The Serpent 🐍

I wanted these bracelets to feel like a little token of The Andes, with the combination of carved stone and colourful weavings. Of the land once ruled by the powerful Inca, hidden high up in the altitudes, surrounded by Apus mountains spirits. Those who carved huge stones, the keepers of grazing animals, weavers, wrapped in layers of rough wool textiles. With lakes of bright turquoise blue and the freezing fresh air, the worshippers of the Father Sun and Mother Moon.

Made using durable, high-quality Brazilian wax coated threads, each bracelet is water resistant, light-weight and feels comfortable on the skin. With an adjustable sliding knot fastening, these bracelets will fit all wrist sizes.

Each bracelet will arrive in a 100% cotton ITAYA reusable drawstring bag, wrapped in tissue paper with a twine bow, ready to be given as a gift to someone special, or to yourself!
