A ring that respects space and proportion. Its deep brown stone, set by hand without press or machinery, sits in a geometric sterling frame that speaks of precision without losing warmth. It is the kind of piece you wear every day because it says "I know what I want" without shouting.

The silver holding this stone carries the .925 hallmark as a guarantee of authenticity — a mark dating back to the Colonial era. In Taxco, each hand-set stone is a deliberate choice: where the stone goes, how light passes through it, how much metal surrounds each facet. No two are alike. The hand-setting technique you see here is the fruit of hours of craft, where the silversmith works without a net: one mistake, and the stone comes loose.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. Since 1534, when silver was discovered in the mountains of Guerrero, the silversmiths of this city have carried the craft in their hands. The Arte Taxco story is part of that unbroken chain — every ring we make inherits that tradition. Your brown stone, today, bears witness to five centuries of mastery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How long does a custom ring take?
A: About 2 weeks in workshop. If you are in a hurry, ask about immediate availability: hola@artetaxco.mx

Q: Is hand-setting stronger than machine setting?
A: Not necessarily stronger, but more controlled: the silversmith adapts each setting to the specific stone, not the other way around. That means less stress on the stone.

Q: Can I wear this ring daily?
A: Yes. Sterling .925 and hand-setting make it very durable. Just avoid direct blows to the stone (like leaning against a door). Care for it as you would care for a garment you love.
