These 925 Sterling Silver Dark Green Jade Earrings 'Asymmetry in Green' by Independent Artisans are an elegant and culturally significant piece by Zandra Lorena. Inspired by her heritage and the sacredness of jade in pre-Hispanic times, Zandra has handcrafted these earrings from sterling silver, each one decorated with a striking dark green Guatemalan jade stone. The design's asymmetry and high-polish finish highlight the stone’s natural beauty. This piece is a testament to her values of love, resilience, and cultural preservation, transmitting positive energies and keeping the tradition of working with jade alive.
Born in Quiché in 1983 and raised in San Lucas Tolimán, this artisan discovered her passion for jewelry alongside her husband, who taught her to craft silver pieces. What began with a simple pair of earrings soon became a livelihood, sustained by perseverance and the support of her first client, her son’s pediatrician. Today, she and her husband run a workshop where they design jewelry that blends silver with jade, a stone revered by the ancient Maya as sacred and protective. Inspired by tradition, she seeks to honor her heritage while creating pieces that appeal to both locals and international visitors. Her work has been recognized by Guatemala’s Tourism Institute for its quality and artistry, and she takes pride in teaching her two sons the craft to carry on the family legacy. Each creation reflects her values of love, resilience, and cultural preservation, offering jewelry imbued with meaning and tradition.
Handcrafted in Guatemala, these earrings are made from 925 sterling silver with dark green jade. They feature a high-polish finish and secure with kidney earwires. Dimensions are 1.5 inches L x 0.5 inches W x 0.2 inches D.
