The Ilama is a handmade gold drop earring drawing directly from Colombia's pre-Columbian heritage — a circular medallion etched with concentric spiral grooves and a decorative cutwork border, suspended from a small engraved disc stud. Crafted from brass and finished in 24-karat gold in Medellín, Colombia, this artisan earring is both an everyday piece and a wearable symbol of ancestral culture. Ethical, sustainable jewelry with deep roots.
The Ilama (Cilama) people are one of the oldest peoples in Columbia and are known for their masks and distinguished gold-working.
Dimensions: 1.25 in. drop x 7/8 in
