Tunjo Necklace
In Muisca culture, a tunjo was an offering to the divine, a golden bridge between worlds. Crafted from sacred metals like gold or tumbaga, tunjos were placed in lakes, caves, and temples as tributes to gods, ancestors, and the natural world.
This hand-beaded golden necklace honors that ancient tradition. With four 24k gold-plated charms — each charm carrying both ancestral reverence and refined elegance.
Wear it as an offering of your own: a symbol of connection, memory, and timeless beauty.
