Quru Choker. A ceremonial open brass collar carrying the Quru, the twin serpents, from the stone of Chavín de Huántar.
The Quru is one of the oldest figures in the Chavín visual language: two serpents woven in mirrored dialogue, keeping watch. In the tradition, transformation moves through relationship, and the twin serpents hold that teaching in form.
The choker is an open collar that rests against the throat. Two Quru serpent heads rest at the nape, keeping watch behind you. Worn at the throat, where words meet the body, Quru becomes a quiet guardian for what you speak and what you hold back.
Each piece is drawn in Peru, in consultation with teachers in Áncash, and handcrafted in Bali by metalsmiths who shape each piece in wax before casting in brass. 5% of every sale returns to Yarpakuti Chawpin, the organisation in Áncash that keeps this tradition alive.
Each piece arrives in a KANTU pouch, with a story card and a care card.
Materials: solid brass. Open collar form, adjustable fit. It does not include a pendant.
Adornment as Remembrance.
