Feathered Serpent Silver Ring – Quetzalcoatl / Kukulkan
From the “Aztec Heritage" and Mayan Heritage” Collections
Not all serpents crawl, Some ascend, Some awaken.
Quetzalcoatl, known to the Maya as Kukulkan; embodies a sacred paradox: the serpent of the earth entwined with the feathers of the heavens. As the Feathered Serpent, he represents the eternal union of opposites: matter and spirit, instinct and vision, shadow and light.
This ring channels that archetype. In Mesoamerican tradition, Quetzalcoatl is a guide of transformation and reflection. He teaches not just the arts or the stars, but how to evolve. His myth tells of self-exile and eventual return, a journey of purification and conscious rebirth.
Forged in solid .925 sterling silver, the ring becomes a seal of this path; a symbol of balance, personal sacrifice, and the will to rise again. It is not a relic. It is a mirror of your inner serpent, your silent promise to become.
Worn not as decoration, but as declaration.

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.
