These earrings capture the play of fire opal in a purple tone — that luminescence that shifts with light. Each stud is tiny and precise, perfect for those who want presence without weight. Purple fire opal is a stone of calm and protection, and in Taxco silver it shines with the quiet power that makes it special. Small earrings that fit any style, from formal to everyday.

Authentic sterling silver .925, hallmarked. Hand-set means each stone was placed individually, no press or machinery — work that takes hours and creates natural variation. The polished finish reveals the warmth of the silver and highlights the opal's purple tone, which is the stone itself, not an imitation.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silvercraft for 500 years. In those five centuries, silversmiths have perfected hand-setting, polishing, proportion — every detail you see here comes from generations of knowledge. Origin is your quality guarantee.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is the opal natural?
R: It is described as fire opal; if you have questions about its geological origin, write us before buying — we're here to answer.

Q: Are the earrings identical to each other?
R: Hand-setting creates subtle, natural variations; they're not pixel-perfect identical, which makes them unique. If you prefer a closer match, ask us.

Q: How long do they last?
R: Sterling silver .925 lasts centuries with care. Opal is more delicate — avoid impacts and prolonged moisture. With basic care, these are lifetime earrings.
