This beautiful Argentina Sun of May Coin necklace represents Inti, The Incan God of the Sun. The specification "of May" is a reference to the May Revolution which took place in the week from 12 to 25 May 1810, which marked the beginning of the independence from the Spanish Empire for the countries that were then part of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata. A legend claims that as the new government was proclaimed, the sun broke through the clouds, which was seen as a good omen.
This lovely necklace features the following elements:
Chain is free of lead, nickel, cadmium, and other irritating components
Due to the nature of coins changing luster with elements of air and moisture, to keep these coins looking shiny, they have been cleaned, polished, and coated with a jewelry grade protectant so they will not oxidize/tarnish.
Gently wipe your jewelry with the free jewelry cloth received with your order to remove debris, sweat, or chemicals from the surface. Our jewelry cloths are a great way to polish and keep your jewelry shiny.
Please try not to wear the jewelry while doing housework, working out, bathing or swimming.
When not wearing, please place it in the velvet pouch/box received with your order to avoid long-term exposure to the sun and air.
