ABOUT
Alicanto, fantastic bird brooch in sterling silver
The Alicanto, an emblematic figure of the folklore legends of the Atacama Desert near the Andes Mountains, comes to life through this superb silver brooch.
In Chilean mythology, the Alicanto is reputed to feed on gold and silver, making it a perfect choice to be represented in this precious metal. At nightfall, its wings shimmer with metallic hues, evoking the mysterious glow of buried riches, while its eyes gleam with an enigmatic light. Considered a lucky bird by the miners of the region, the Alicanto embodies luck and fortune.
This silver brooch is the result of meticulous craftsmanship. Every detail of the bird, drawn by hand and cut with a saw frame, is adorned with delicate decorations and finishes, giving this piece an undeniable uniqueness. Perfectly suited to be worn on a scarf, this brooch will captivate all with its fantastical appearance and its symbolism rich in history.
Treat yourself to an exceptional piece of jewelry that tells a fascinating story and let the Alicanto bring you luck at every moment.
