These earrings capture the essence of fire opal — that rare gemstone where yellow, red, and green dance with every movement. Each opal droplet is unique, with its own iridescent palette. The hand-setting technique from Taxco places every stone with precision, ensuring light not only passes through the gem but dances within it.

Sterling .950 silver of exceptional purity, stamped with the official .950 hallmark that certifies authenticity. Hand stone setting is a craft that demands patience: each opal is evaluated before setting, each silver bezel is adjusted by hand alone, with only the tools and skill of a Taxco artisan. For 500 years, Taxco has been the world capital of fine silversmithing. Since colonial times, the master jewelers of this Guerrero city perfected techniques that remain alive today in every piece. Fire opal, with its rarity and beauty, deserves a setting that honors both — and that is what you find here: the tradition of Arte Taxco in 3 centimeters of reflected light.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is hand stone setting?
A: The art of placing each gemstone into a silver bezel without industrial machinery. The artisan adjusts each silver claw by hand, evaluating the stone before setting it — each piece takes more time and achieves more precision than machine setting.

Q: Is fire opal fragile?
A: It is a beautiful but delicate stone — avoid salt water, chlorine, and impacts. Store in a case when not wearing. With proper care, they will accompany you for years.

Q: Can I adjust the wire or customize the length?
A: Yes. We make custom pieces in ~2 weeks. Email hola@artetaxco.mx with your preferences.
