In ancient Maya and Aztec civilisations, cacao was said to be one of the foods of the gods and carried great significance. As well as being a valuable trading currency and symbol of wealth, Mayan texts describe the cacao as heart-opening, allowing you to connect with yourself and others in meaningful ways. Our silversmiths bring the cacao bean to life in these elegant swinging earrings. The high-polished beans feature tactile ridged surfaces and attach to contemporary sculptural hooks.
