The Octavia necklace is made of dark Jade, with vintage amulets and a traditional Chachal. The circumference of the inner necklace measures 24", the middle strand is 28", and the outer is 32". 

The Dark Jade used in this Heirloom Necklace is sourced from a family owned business in Guatemala. Mining Jade is a very meticulous process of striking large stones and boulders to find ones that give off a specific tone. When the minors hear these tones, they know they have found Jade. Dark Jade has been renowned in Mayan culture for its properties of protection. As well as a representation of fertility, life, and soothing the anxiety of the mind.

The Chachal is of extreme significance to the heritage of the Mayan people and has evolved through the centuries. In pre-Colombian times within Mayan culture, the Chachal was worn by men and women as a way to portray status and wealth, as well as a reflection of one’s own connection to the divine. When the Spaniards arrived in what is now South America, amidst much conflict, assimilation of both cultures intertwined around each other and the cultural significance of the Chachal evolved. The heirloom collection is meant to honor this history, and the importance it has had for the Mayan people as it has been passed down through generations, with the hope of  continuing the legacy for many generations to come.
