Description
Necklace handmade in Bronze 22k Gold Plated or Silver .925.UTATAVI means God who manifests itself in the shape of a deer.For the Huichol people, the "magical deer" represents both the power of maize to sustain the body and of the peyote cactus to feed and enlighten the spirit. It is the deer that holds an intimate role. The character of the Huichol tends to be light, flexible and humorous. They have avoided open warfare, neither fighting against the Spanish nor Mexican governments, but holding to their own traditions. The Huichol hunt and sacrifice deer in their ceremonies. They make offerings to the Deer of the Maize to care for their crops, and to the Deer of the Peyote to bring them spiritual guidance and artistic inspiration. GOLD PLATEDAll plating will eventually wear off over time due to normal usage. To have your jewelry replated, please contact us for a quote. Use non-abrasive cleaning materials. If a cleaning substance is too strong it may remove the gold.Do not let your jewelry come into contact with nail polish removers, perfume or hairspray. Frequently clean in a mild dishwashing liquid diluted in water. Use of a polishing cloth or strong jewelry cleaner is NOT recommended.
