This 'Destiny Nahual' necklace by Independent Artisans is a beautiful and elegant piece rich with symbolism. Presented by Nicte Migliozzi, the necklace features six 'E' nahual symbols, crafted in sculptural sterling silver and adorned with natural dark green jade. The 'E' nahual signifies the path of destiny, life, and guidance, representing the stairs we walk between the lower world, the physical world, and the world above. Each three-dimensional form is a work of wearable art, capturing light and movement while honoring Guatemala’s enduring artistic traditions. The necklace is a personal and cultural statement, reflecting the warmth of Nicte's adopted home and her vision of jewelry as a bridge between tradition and contemporary elegance.
Nicte, a Brazilian-born designer now based in Guatemala, creates jewelry defined by sculptural forms and contemporary elegance. Her journey began in childhood, inspired by her father’s early experiments with bamboo jewelry, which later evolved into a shared family passion for silver and jade. After moving to Guatemala in 2019, Nicte immersed herself in its vibrant culture, blending her design sensibility with local artistry. She works alongside a team of skilled craftspeople, refining each step of the process from smelting silver to polishing jade, ensuring every piece is handcrafted with precision. Her designs are distinguished by three-dimensional forms that capture light and movement, transforming noble materials into wearable art. Rooted in gratitude for her adopted home, Nicte’s collections reflect the warmth of Guatemala and her vision of jewelry as both personal expression and cultural bridge, crafted with love and dedication.
Handcrafted in Guatemala with 925 sterling silver and natural jade, this 18-inch curb link chain necklace features a 3.7-inch pendant and fastens with an S-hook clasp.
