These earrings capture the essence of fire opal — a stone that plays with light and reveals unique tones with every movement. The lime green in this pair is luminous, almost fluorescent in natural light, making it perfect for someone seeking a detail that shines without shouting. At 1.3 cm, they're versatile: understated at work, striking at night.

Each stone was hand-set in .950 silver, a purer metal than .925 — the choice for sensitive skin or maximum durability. The .950 carries its hallmark as proof of authenticity. The visible craftsmanship in the setting is not a flaw: it's the signature of Taxco's stone inlay technique, where each gem is placed individually, without machinery, fitting to the stone's natural geometry.

Fire opal is delicate — which is why Taxco treats it as what it is: a precious stone requiring care. These earrings aren't for the gym, but they're perfect for any moment where you want to be noticed. For 500 years, Taxco has mastered the art of setting delicate stone in silver, and this piece proves it in every detail.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is fire opal fragile?
A: Yes — it's more delicate than diamond or cubic zirconia. Not for contact sports, but perfect for careful everyday wear. Avoid direct impact and saltwater.

Q: Can I change the closure type?
A: Yes. Email hola@artetaxco.mx for screw-back, lever-back, or magnetic clip options.

Q: Is .950 silver better than .925?
A: Both are authentic. .950 is purer and longer-lasting, but softer — ideal for lightweight earrings that don't carry heavy weight.
