This vibrant necklace features a finely carved Chimu-Inca chrysocolla pendant shaped like a stylized standing human figure. The figure is characterized by its oversized rectangular head, slab-like nose, and open mouth, with hands resting on the waist and large feet with incised toes. The pendant is suspended from a modern necklace of spherical, translucent selenite beads interspersed with gold spacers. The smooth white sheen of the selenite contrasts beautifully with the saturated green-blue of the pendant, creating a visually striking composition that connects ancient symbolism with modern presentation.

Medium: Chrysocolla, quartz, gold

Dimensions: Amulet height: 1 1/4 inches (3 cm)

Condition: Pendant intact and in excellent condition, the necklace is a modern assembly.

Provenance: Emily & Walter Mead Collection, Santa Fe, New Mexico, acquired mid 20th century. Prominent collectors from the Mead Paper Corporation family, specializing in early weaponry, pre-Columbian art, and antiquities.
