One of the things I believe that make jewelry stand out the most and differentiates each piece, is its ability to be passed down through generations. In all of my experiences I have found that Peruvian jewelry does just that. The story and history behind each piece of Peruvian jewelry is what adds meaning and uniqueness to a gift, allowing it to touch the lives of families as a whole. The rich culture that is embedded into each piece of handcrafted jewelry through its materials and technique are what set it apart from any other jewelry. For example, the Huayruro seeds that are commonly found in traditional pieces are known by natives to bring good fortune, and the legendary powers of the opal beads are sworn to bring relaxation and peace. It is this power and history that make the opal seed bracelet perfect to give anyone, especially right before the holiday season when stress levels from everyone are sure to peak. Whether it be a romantic gift or simply for a friend, it is hard for anyone to resist the majestic qualities of Peruvian jewelry.
