Corn Necklace
Symbolism
Corn Silver Pendant
From the “Mayan Heritage” and "Nature Inspired" Collections
Essence of Mayan Creation
Forged in solid 925 Sterling Silver, this piece pays tribute to the sacred maize, the heart of Mayan cosmology and life. In the Popol Vuh, corn is not just sustenance; it is origin. Humanity was shaped from it by the divine, making this grain the very material of existence.
This pendant honors that sacred truth: that life itself is rooted in the earth, in ritual, and in the golden silence of the maize fields. More than jewelry, it is a symbol of origin, continuity, and spiritual nourishment.

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.
