These earrings capture the magic of fire opal: bands of red, orange, green, and amber that play with light at every head turn. The polished silver frame enhances every flash, while the hand-set stone — placed stone by stone — speaks to the hours the Taxco artisan spent securing each one. A balanced size (3.2 cm), neither discreet nor loud: the sweet spot for everyday wear or a special occasion where you want to glow without shouting.

Authentic sterling .925 silver with its hallmark — proof that what hangs from your ears is real. Hand stone setting is a Taxco technique that demands jeweler's precision: each stone is held by its own silver claws, no presses or machinery. That is why every pair is subtly different — no two fire opals are exactly alike, and no two settings are exactly alike.

For 500 years, Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silvercraft. The Arte Taxco story is woven into that legacy: every piece we make honors five centuries of craft, refined technique, and respect for silver. When you buy these earrings, you buy not just jewelry, you buy the heritage of Taxco in your ears.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What is fire opal?
A: A quartz with red, orange, and green flash — each stone is unique because the color depends on how light travels through the internal mineral layers. It is not a classic opalescent opal, but quartz with that fire effect.

Q: Is hand-set more fragile than machine-pressed?
A: It requires more care because the tiny claws holding the stone are fine. If you do not hit or squeeze them, they last for years. Clean gently with a soft cloth — that is all it needs.

Q: Can I choose other opal colors?
A: These are natural multicolor. If you want a different stone type or size, tell us — we custom-make.
