Item Description
These are a pair of handworked brass, silver and lapis lazuli earrings. They are approximately 2" in diameter. Lapis Lazuli has been traditionally worn for thousands of years by many cultures including Egyptians and Mesoamericans. Amongst other things, it is a wonderful stone for connecting with your intuition and for connecting with ancient knowledges.
Item Special Note
A note from the Artist:
I work under the name "las ofrendas", as a traveling vendor & medicine maker- collecting stones, medicine stories, inspirations, and learning healing practices, on location from healers, shamans, other vendors and other traditional craftspeople, which I share through my work from location to location. "Las Ofrendas" are Spirit-Infused, hand-crafted, wearable art pieces to adorn your mind, body, and soul. Each piece holds its own symbolic meaning. I make custom pieces out of natural materials and intentional use of color, and help people select pieces that support their own unique journeys, as well as make earth-based soaps, tinctures, and other medicines. As a Mayan, two-spirited person, I am most interested in the ways that we can engage with the Spiritual tradition of jewelry making and adornment and combine these aesthetics with a contemporary twist... this is the indige-swag that I hope my pieces represent.
