Bracelet "Inka Calendar"
by
A bracelet featuring a sequence of patterns that have their origin in the Inka civilization and the Inka calendar.
Materials
The bracelet is handcrafted using quality 950 silver (95% pure silver) and natural pigments. The indigo blue and turquoise colors are derived from semi-precious stones, while the white, white/yellow and orange colors are derived from sea shells.
Selecting the right size
The length chosen should be matching the perimeter of your hand at the height where you will be wearing it. For example, if the perimeter of your hand is 18 cm (7.09 in), you should select the "18 cm / 7.09 in" variant. The length of the bracelet is 18 cm (7.09 in) when laid out horizontally and its perimeter comes out a bit longer. This means that it will have some extra space so that it's not too tight in your hand.
We can always make a custom make so that you get just the right size for you, for no additional cost!
950 silver contains a very high percentage of pure silver which is malleable in nature and it should to be handled with care to avoid scratches. It can be washed with cold or hot water, detergent and a soft fabric such as cotton.

This bracelet is probably my favorite piece of jewelry. The workmanship is very fine, and the rainbow of colors in the stones and shells are vibrant and clear. The clasp is so beautiful that I wear it on top of my wrist to show it off. Having visited Peru and seen much of the silver jewelry that is available there, and there is a lot, I can vouch for the fine quality of this bracelet and the skill of the artisans who made it. I look forward to buying more pieces for myself and for gifts. This is a unique and wearable work of art that anyone would be happy to have.
I would like to add that Inka Market is easy to work with, reliable and trustworthy. They put every effort into making sure you will be happy with your purchase, and you will be!

Gorgeous earings!!!!
by Maria B.These earrings are gorgeous, the pictures don't do them justice enough! The colors from stones and sea shells are beautiful and bright and the design is harmonious and elegant. The silver is brighter than other jewelry I have, probably due to higher concentration in pure silver (950 silver).

Silver Ring
by Sanda L.Beautiful jewelry and it was difficult to make a decision what to buy. This Pachamama (Mother Earth) set (ring and earrings) was one of my favorites. High quality silver in a charming 5 color combination with sea shells and precious stones.

What is 950 silver?
Pure silver is very soft by its nature and it cannot be easily used to craft jewelry. An alloy that consists of 92.5% of silver and 7.5% of other metals (usually copper) is most commonly used for making jewelry - this is called "sterling silver". Our artisans use "950 silver" which is an alloy consisting of 95% silver and 5% of copper or other metals and which is one of the highest silver standards used for crafting jewelry that is currently in use.
