Carved Quartz Amulet & Chrysocolla · Macrame Talisman Necklace
Carved Quartz Amulet & Chrysocolla · Macrame Talisman Necklace
A powerful quartz piece that’s been carved to represent a warrior figure. Historically, pre-Inca warriors carried small amulets like these with them, to bring out their own inner strength in times of need be.
Above the carving is a beautiful little Chrysocolla stone with an inclusion of Pyrite. From a cultural perspective, Chrysocolla was and still is a very important stone. Used for thousands of years within pre-Inca cultures, especially along the coast of Peru, where it was thought of this as a sacred stone. For them in their cosmo-vision, Chrysocolla represented the connection between Man and the World.
This piece has been woven using high quality Brazilian wax coated threads and only natural stones. The necklace has an adjustable length, so can be worn high-up as a choker or much lower depending on how you’d like to wear it.
We hope these pieces can serve as a physical reminder of strength. All our talisman necklaces are designed to be unisex.
Each necklace will arrive in a reusable 100% cotton ITAYA drawstring bag for safe keeping.
