These earrings capture the essence of fire opal: that deep blue with green flashes that shift in light. Each stone, hand-set in .950 silver by Taxco artisans, rests in a frame that enhances without hiding it. They are earrings for someone who adores rare minerals and pieces that tell a story — fire opal is collector's stone.

.950 silver is purer than .925: it carries the hallmark that certifies authenticity. Hand-forged, without press or machine, each stone is set individually. It is watchmaker's work — hours of precision so the opal breathes under light without risk of loosening. In Taxco, this technique is ancestral; our artisans have practiced it for decades.

Fire opal is a stone of Oaxaca, sister to lapis lazuli in rarity. Collectors buy it because its value only grows. Wearing these earrings, you carry minerals that nature took millions of years to form — and Taxco makes their beauty accessible.

Frequently Asked

Q: Is the fire opal natural?
A: Yes, it is natural fire opal. The intense blue color with green flashes is characteristic of the Oaxaca variety. If you have questions about origin, write us before purchasing.

Q: Can the stone fall out?
A: No. The hand-setting technique in Taxco fixes the stone so it does not require re-soldering. Still, check occasionally that the hook has no visible cracks.

Q: Can I change the size?
A: Yes, these are made-to-order. If you prefer longer or shorter earrings, or different stones, write us to quote your custom option.
