Earrings that balance minimalism with sophistication. Black onyx, polished to a mirror finish, creates a luminous contrast against the sterling silver that surrounds each stone. The 5.1 cm length is generous enough to frame the face without excess — that sweet spot between presence and everyday elegance. The silver wire is comfortable and secure, designed for hours of wear without fatigue.

Each stone was hand-set in Taxco's workshops, meaning the silver adapts to the natural shape of the onyx, not the other way around. This individual fitting work takes time and skill — it is what distinguishes artisanal jewelry from mass production. Your certificate of authenticity backs every purchase.

Taxco has been synonymous with silverwork for 500 years. This mountain city in Guerrero witnessed the birth of a tradition when silver arrived to these lands, and five centuries later it remains the heart of Mexico's artisanal jewelry. The Arte Taxco story is the story of that continuity: inheriting craft, respecting materials, and creating without rush.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is hand-setting?
A: The stone is secured by placing silver around it using hand tools, not a machine press. Each stone is fitted individually — no two settings are identical.

Q: Does onyx scratch easily?
A: Onyx is relatively soft (6–7 on the Mohs scale). Avoid hard impacts, but daily contact with clothing and skin is safe. Store in a dry case.

Q: Can I order a different length?
A: These earrings are sold at the length shown. For custom lengths, email hola@artetaxco.mx and we'll explore options.
