These delicate silver hearts hold the warmth of fire opal in a deep purple tone. Each stone is set by hand, one by one, ensuring the color flows without machine pressure. Their delicate size — barely larger than a grain of rice — makes them perfect for everyday wear or moments where less is more. The .925 silver with its hallmark backs every piece.

Taxco fire opal is a stone that tells stories: natural minerals with color variations that make each pair one of a kind. In this purple tone, the stone reflects almost mystical hues. The hand-setting technique of Taxco is a craft that barely survives in the world — each stone is fixed individually, without machines, without rush.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. From conquest to today, generations of silversmiths have passed down the craft: how to listen to silver, how to work it without violence. The Arte Taxco story is the story of that living tradition. When you buy these earrings, you buy access to that world.
