About the collection

Named in honor of the ancient indigenous people of the Muzo region of Colombia, the Muiscas are one of four advanced civilizations of the Americas. As legend has it, the tribe performed El Dorado or ‘The Gilded One,’ a ritual in which a ruler covered his body with gold dust, offering precious objects and emeralds to the gods.
