Whale-Shark Silver Earrings
From the “Marine Animals” Collection
Handcrafted in solid 925 Sterling Silver, these whale-shark earrings are inspired by the serene giants that glide along the shores of Quintana Roo; a coastline once sacred to the ancient Maya.
More than a marine creature, the whale shark embodies silent presence and deep wisdom. In these earrings, sea and spirit meet: a tribute to the quiet strength of the ocean and the reverence with which the Maya honored its mysteries.

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.
