She presents an artisan crafted ceramic pendant necklace hand painted in beautiful jewel tones. Fuchsia, green, and purple combine with the gold and black tones of the pendant which features geometric shapes recalling Inca iconography; a symbol of the sun, the heavenly body at the core of the Inca's religious beliefs, sits at the center of the doughnut-shaped pendant which is topped with a bead painted in similar hues.About our Artist: Ubaldina (Dina) Paucar is proud of her Peruvian heritage so, as a young girl, she decided to study handicrafts.
