The metalworking art of Tolima was intended to capture the phenomenon of Shamanic transformation, as well as the magic inherent in the taking on of the attributes and powers of animals. Breastplates and pendants in different variations showing a man transfigured into a bat, a bird or a jaguar.

​The impeccable symmetry of its forms, the exact proportions of its measurements and its exquisitive crafting make this breastplate a timeless masterpiece.

This is our Santa Rosa necklace featuring the beautiful breastplate and complemented with cuarzo and unakite gemstones.
