Handcrafted 925 sterling silver pendant with a symbolic sun and moon design, made by the TASMAN workshop in Mexico, model MM-229. Engraved on the back with "TASMAN MM-229 MEXICO 925 CHICHÉN ITZÁ", this piece directly references the spiritual legacy of the Mayan culture. In excellent condition, it is ideal as a symbolic piece of jewelry or as a collector's item.
Crafted in sterling silver with an oxidized finish that highlights the design's reliefs. The sun is depicted as a fist with flaming rays, while the moon, with a face, suggests a dual vision of the cosmos. The pendant retains its ring decorated with a traditional geometric openwork pattern.
In the Mesoamerican worldview, the sun symbolizes vital energy, daylight, and masculinity; the moon represents cycles, night, and femininity. This balance between opposites reflects the universal harmony that governed Mayan thought. The allusion to Chichen Itza, a highly important ceremonial and astronomical center, reinforces the piece's cultural significance.
Ideal as a personal amulet, spiritual jewel, or a meaningful gift for those who value Mesoamerican heritage. It can be worn with leather or silver chains for an authentic and timeless style.

What you are buying (important)
We sell antique and vintage items. These are not new or recently manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, minor losses, or variations inherent to the passage of time. These characteristics are part of their nature and are not considered defects. We recommend carefully reviewing the photographs, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm a specific detail before purchasing, please contact us.
Photos and color
The photographs are taken under artificial light. For this reason, the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is critical for you, we can send you additional photos taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the actual color.
Patina and cleaning
Many pieces develop a patina over time. We don't remove it, as it's a natural process that can take decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the piece's aesthetic value and character.
If you decide to clean or polish, do so carefully and with the material in mind. The buyer should make this decision, as cleaning can affect the appearance, authenticity, and, in some cases, the value. If you need cleaning instructions based on the material, please contact us and we'll guide you.
