These 'Looking Back' dangle earrings by Marina Guzman are a delicate accessory that emits a 19th-century vibe while still having a modern and original design. The 18k gold-plated sterling silver earrings are a testament to the artist's inspirations from mathematics, nature, and the history of her native Peru. The high polish finish adds a beautiful shine to the slender design. This piece reflects the artist's dedication to blending tradition with modern expression and honoring her family's legacy.
The daughter of renowned silversmith Jacinto Guzmán, this artisan grew up surrounded by sketches, molds, and the tools of her father’s trade, absorbing a love for metalwork from an early age. After overcoming a serious illness in 1994, she chose to leave her law studies behind and dedicate herself fully to jewelry design and restoration. Drawing on ancestral Peruvian techniques, colonial influences, and contemporary innovation, she works primarily with silver and copper, favoring aged finishes that reveal character and symbolism. Since 2009, she has shared her creative process through live exhibitions, demonstrating every step from melting silver grit to hammering and chiseling. Inspired by Peru’s colors, history, and future, she leads a team of dedicated artisans and apprentices, blending tradition with modern expression. Her dream is to see the next generation continue the family legacy, ensuring that Peruvian silversmithing endures as both cultural heritage and a living art form.
Handcrafted in Peru from 18K gold-plated 925 sterling silver, with a high polish finish. The earrings are 1.2 inches in length by 0.2 inches in width and feature a post-back closure.
