Kukulkan Timekeeper Bracelet
Symbolism
Hand-woven Silver bracelet with Mayan Calendar and Kukulkan
A Symbol of Cycles. A Tribute to the Divine Order.
Inspired by the refined astronomical knowledge of the Maya, this bracelet centers a representation of the Calendar Round, the system that united the 260-day Tzolk’in and the 365-day Haab’ to mark the recurring cycles of time used throughout Mesoamerica. More than a tool of chronology, these cycles reflected the rhythmic balance between the human world, nature, and the sacred.
Flanking the central motif, two Feathered Serpents evoke Kukulkan, the Maya manifestation of the ancient Mesoamerican “Feathered Serpent” deity known across cultures for symbolizing wind, movement, renewal, and the connection between earth and sky. Serpents with feathered attributes appear throughout Maya architecture and iconography, especially in sites such as Chichén Itzá, where descending serpent-shadow effects mark solar events with extraordinary precision.
Handwoven and secured with a polished .925 sterling silver clasp, the piece embodies continuity, protection, and the harmony of cyclical time. The twin serpents stand as guardians of order and transformation, guiding the wearer toward clarity, purpose, and alignment with the ancient rhythms that shaped Maya cosmology.

Craftsmanship
At Tikalkun, every piece is a ritual—a tribute to the ancient civilizations that shaped our world. We don’t just craft jewelry; we translate sacred symbols into silver—symbols of power, wisdom, and transformation that still echo through time.
Each design begins with a search. Tikal, our founder and jeweler, dives deep into Mesoamerican iconography until he finds a symbol that calls to be reborn. With modern tools like 3D modeling and hands guided by reverence, we shape every piece as a bridge between past and present.
We are a family working with heart and soul. Every detail is handled with care, every line drawn with respect. There’s no rush, no mass production—only pieces that carry the breath of civilizations that saw life as sacred.
Tikalkun doesn’t follow trends. It honors memory. Because some wear jewelry—but others carry legacy.
