Inspired by Inca motifs and nature, this boho pendant is handcrafted by a young and talented master silversmith from Peru with a specialty for ethnic filigree jewelry. Made from 925 sterling silver in both natural silver and oxidized silver, a single wire - itself created by hand from several strands of silver - is twisted and turned with great dexterity to create a unique and intricate abstract design based on an ocean wave.
Oxidized jewelry gives another dimension to silver, darkening it and helping to create depth and contrast within a design. This effect is best seen in filigree jewelry, where intricate patterns stand out dramatically between bright natural silver and darkened oxidized silver. This elegant pendant combines traditional craftsmanship with contemporary boho chic aesthetic.
The design of this silver pendant captures the essence of ocean movement and serenity. Waves symbolize strength, renewal, and connection with nature, making this piece of ethnic artisan jewelry an accessory loaded with meaning and beauty. Perfect as sophisticated nautical jewelry, each curve and detail of the wave pendant evokes the constant energy and harmonious rhythm of the sea.
Filigree was introduced to the Americas by the conquering Spaniards, who in turn inherited the technique from the influx of Arabs to Spain during the era of Al-Andalus. The technique was widespread in the Middle East thanks to new ideas introduced via the Silk Road and became a specialty amongst Jewish communities, to whom every other community would flock for intricate filigree work.
Today, Peruvian artisans keep this ancient tradition alive, creating sterling silver jewelry that fuses traditional techniques with contemporary bohemian designs inspired by nature.
