These 'Ancient Suns' earrings by Jacqueline and Eddy are a stunning blend of nature-inspired design and masterful craftsmanship. Crafted using the lost-wax casting technique, the sterling silver settings form fiery, sun-like tendrils that beautifully encircle two natural amber baguettes. The amber's natural hues are enhanced by the combination finish of the silver, creating a piece that feels both rustic and refined. These dangle earrings are an artful representation of the warm, powerful essence of the sun, and they honor the rich traditions of amber work in their homeland of Simojovel, Mexico. They are a must-have for those who appreciate jewelry with a story and a strong sense of place.
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 combination finish. The earrings are 1.4 inches in length and 0.8 inches in width, and feature a hook closure.
