Welcome. 
 This is a Dragonfly Pendant created by the family run business of Urin Huanca*. These Dragonflies are fashioned from the native fauna local to Lima, Peru. 

 Made from shell and sterling silver, the prominent material is Nacre. Nacre is a yellow Mother of Pearl from the Pacific Coast of Peru. It is known for its unique shade and richness, and its quality of shimmering in the slightest amount of light (see the video). Rich Vermilion Spiny Oyster is in the central body, tail tip, and tops. All the materials are from Peru, from its ocean shore to its high inland mountains. Seventeen individual pieces are in the pendant. The sections have been created through hand cutting of the shell, set with the finest slivers of sterling silver thread between each. All this is presented on a solid base of the fine silver. The hand crafting of the silver is exquisite. The long bodies of the dragonflies are textured and lovely. Sterling silver from Peru is some of the purest at .950. 

More Information:
 *Urin Huanca is THE preeminent family owned jewelry business in South America, reaching back to the 1930's. With only a dozen or so employees, access to their works of art can be limited. This family of craftsmen create wonders which come from the culture of their Incan ancestors and now they have taken their place as contemporary Masters. There are many who attempt to copy their work, but Urin Huanca supplies the finest in both the silver and quality and skill of the the perfect inlay pieces.
 Each of the pieces are from the natural wonders of Peru on the land and on their shores. The craftsmen take the time to individually pick each of the precious stones and shells to be used. Each piece is very carefully and delicately cut and laid. Fine silver filaments are inserted between pieces in a perfect preciseness only generational hands are capable of. The designs were originally created by the Inca. Now their descendants recreate this with their own contemporary touch. And, in addition to all of this, they insist on using the highest grade .950 pure silver, also from Peru. These pieces are expertly created by a small team of artisans who value and treasure their ancestors gifts of creation from the ancient past. 
 This Peruvian jewelry is not for the tourist trade, but rather for the discriminating buyer looking for true and authentic magnificence in their acquisitions.
