A ring that defies the flat. Cartoneado is a little-known technique outside Guerrero, where Taxco artisans craft three-dimensional volume from silver sheets, with no interior filling — only air and precision. This piece plays with shadow and light, with forms that shift with the movement of your hand. It is sculptural, modern, without ornaments to distract: only .925 silver worked to speak for itself.

The sterling silver carries its Quinto — the official Mexican hallmark of authenticity — a guarantee of purity and origin. Cartoneado demands hours of work: each curve, each angle is achieved by hand, without machines to rush it. A ring that weighs more than it looks, because the metal is real and the craft is dense.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silverwork for 500 years. Every piece from its workshops inherits that history — of generations of silversmiths who turned silver into art. The Arte Taxco story is born from that legacy. This ring is part of it.
