These 'Golden Legends' dangle earrings by Jacqueline and Eddy are a stunning tribute to the ancient art of working with amber in Simojovel, Mexico. This elegant pair features a cascade of hand-carved, triangular pendants of natural amber, a material revered for its mystical and medicinal qualities. Each amber piece is unique, with its own rich tones and potential for fossilized inclusions, serving as a testament to its organic origin and authenticity. The sterling silver setting complements the warm golden glimmer of the amber, creating a piece that honors Chiapas’ cultural identity. These earrings are a captivating blend of heritage and subtle sophistication, designed to add a touch of timeless magic to any look.
From Simojovel de Allende in Chiapas, Jacqueline and Eddy are artisans devoted to the ancestral art of working with amber, a material long celebrated in their region as both mystical and medicinal. Introduced to the craft at age 14 by their uncle Gabriel, Jacqueline learned to cut, polish, and shape amber, later passing this knowledge on to her husband and children. Together, the couple create jewelry that honors the natural beauty of Chiapaneco amber, known for its exceptional hardness and rich tones, transforming it into pieces that carry both heritage and individuality. Their designs are inspired by the magic of nature and the traditions of their homeland, blending passion with meticulous handcrafting. Today, their workshop provides a livelihood and a creative outlet, while their international recognition allows them to share Chiapas’ cultural identity with the world. Each piece embodies pride, tradition, and the enduring legacy of Mexico’s “land of amber.”
Handcrafted in Mexico from 925 sterling silver and natural amber, with a high polish finish. The earrings are 1.6 inches in length and 0.4 inches in width, and feature a hook closure.
