These 'Andean Sun' by Independent Artisans are a classic and versatile pair of stud earrings that evoke the brilliant warmth of the Andean sun. Presented by Peruvian designer Luis Banda Castañeda, these earrings feature a simple yet shining globe of sterling silver plated in 18k gold. The minimalist design is both modern and trendy, making these the perfect everyday accessory to channel the richness of Peru's landscapes and traditions while embracing a contemporary vision.
Lima-born designer Luis Banda Castañeda, known as Lucho, grew up admiring the natural beauty of Peru—from the Pacific Ocean to the Andes and Amazon. Initially trained in economics, his career took him to Europe and the United States before he returned home to embrace jewelry design. Influenced by his Inca heritage and a lifelong passion for handcrafted art, he transforms silver and gemstones into original creations that reflect both cultural roots and modern vision. Friends call him a dreamer, but Lucho believes dreaming is essential to creation. His jewelry channels the richness of Peru’s landscapes and traditions, offering pieces that are both deeply personal and universally resonant. Each design is a tribute to the gifts of nature and the enduring artistry of his ancestors.
These post earrings are crafted from 18k gold-plated 925 sterling silver with a high-polish finish. They measure 0.4 inches high by 0.4 inches in diameter.
