For decades, pieces like this have accompanied moments of faith, devotion, and spiritual protection. In Taxco, silver and the sacred have always walked together.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Does it come with a chain?
R: No. The pendant is sold alone. We recommend 45–60 cm silver chains; write to hola@artetaxco.mx for suggestions.

Q: Can I wear the cross in water?
R: Avoid chlorine and saltwater. A quick shower is fine, but keep it dry afterward. The patina holds better that way.

Q: What makes this cross different?
R: It is authentic hand-carved work, not industrial casting. Each one has microscopic variations in light and shadow that confirm its singularity.
