Description |
Were the jungles of ancient South America, filled
with such fantastic beasts or was it only the
imaginations of the people who lived there? In the
presence of this golden amulet, we are
transported to a world of cool emerald shadows
and fabled golden cities. Though that world
remains elusive, this intriguing pendant seems to
tell us it existed sometime, somewhere.
