Olmec Head Charm Sterling Silver | Mayan Jewelry | Made in USA

One of the ancient world's most mysterious monuments -- the colossal Olmec head -- cast in solid .925 sterling silver and Made in USA. This 3D charm measures 1/2" x 1/2" and reproduces the iconic stone portrait in wearable miniature.

A centrifugal caster forces molten sterling silver at over 1,640 degrees into the mold at roughly 50 G's, capturing the broad facial features, helmet-like headdress, and full lips that define these monumental basalt sculptures.

The Olmec civilization carved at least 17 colossal stone heads between 1500 and 400 BCE in what is now southern Mexico. Weighing up to 50 tons each in their original basalt, these portraits likely depicted rulers. At 4.1 grams of solid sterling silver, this charm distills that ancient power into a piece you can wear. A sterling silver jump ring comes included and attached.

Ideal for Mesoamerican history enthusiasts, archaeology buffs, Mexico travelers, or anyone fascinated by civilizations that predate the Maya and Aztec by centuries. Add to a history-themed bracelet or wear as a striking pendant.
