These earrings bring the essence of Taxco's cartoneado technique: sterling sheet shaped to create volume without weight. At just 1.1 centimeters long, they're perfect for minimalist lovers who still want presence — that balance between delicate and defined. Cartoneado is an unknown art outside Guerrero, a tradition requiring watchmaker precision to fold and solder without thickness. Each piece is a small exercise in craft.

Sterling .925 with guaranteed hallmark. Hypoallergenic post, comfortable for everyday wear. The lightness is the gift: you'll forget you're wearing them, but everyone will notice. Made in Taxco, assembled in Mexico.

Taxco has been the world capital of handcrafted silver for 500 years. In every corner, silversmiths still pass down pre-Hispanic and colonial techniques — including cartoneado, which shapes volume with the patience of the trade. When you buy from Taxco, you invest in that legacy. The Arte Taxco story is rooted in respect for this tradition.
