What the Spiral Meant

In Sinu art the spiral represented growth, especially the growth of plants. It was read as the continuous cycle of life.

A growth and renewal bracelet wears that idea on the wrist.

Gold and Cycles

In ancient Colombia metal color was tied to the cycles of the sun and moon. They stood for birth, death and regeneration.

A spiral charm bracelet in gold fits that thinking.

Wearing and Display

Wear the Sinu spiral bracelet alone so the charm shows. Wipe with a soft cloth. Ask us if you need another length.

A Pre-Columbian spiral bracelet suits any outfit. See more in our Museum Jewelry Bracelets.
