In fact, along with the well-known silver and gold jewelry produced by Peru artisans, the eco-friendly trend and tourist markets have encouraged the production of beautiful jewelry made of organic materials. Some of these, like Huayruro seed jewelry, Mate gourd jewelry, and Spondylus shell jewelry have been handed down from generation to generation. Other jewelry using husks, bamboo, shells, stones, wood, tagua, and various other organic materials is part of the new approach to Peruvian jewelery marketing.
Although the Incas were oppressed and finally conquered by adventurers because of their rich gold hoardings, mainly in the form of ceremonial jewelry, mining for gold and other minerals did not take place on a large scale until the invasion of Spanish civilization in Peru. Currently, Peru is known for its production of copper, being the 3rd major source of copper worldwide. Based on the results of ExpoPeru in 2010, the sectors with the greatest potential to export include jewelry from Peru. Have a Story about Peruvian Jewelery?Do you have a great story about this?
