Silver Aymara Earring

These sterling silver earrings capture the native wildlife of Chile with their delicate botanical style. The set is adorned with red beads, small medallions and floral engraving to symbolize life and fertility. In a peasant economy where the livelihood depends on agriculture and livestock production, fertility symbols, such as water and flowers, are symbols of abundance, prosperity and welfare. Each set is a beautiful handmade gift made by silversmiths of the Arica and Parinacota regions of Chile.
