These earrings capture fire opal in its most understated form: lime green stones set one by one in .950 silver, letting the gem's natural light breathe. They're for anyone who chooses detail over drama — each tilt of the head ignites them without commanding the room. Hand stone setting is the soul of this work: each gemstone is secured individually, a task requiring jeweler's precision and hours of focus.

.950 silver is the standard of Taxco's silversmithing tradition, even purer than .925. Each earring bears its .950 hallmark — proof of authenticity that Taxco artisans have carved into metal for 500 years. Learn about Arte Taxco's certificate of authenticity.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver since 1534 — five centuries of craft where every piece tells a story of skill. These fire opal earrings are heirs to that legacy: hand-formed, stone-set without machinery, born in the heart of Guerrero. No two pairs are exactly alike.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What exactly is fire opal?
A: A variety of opal with color play ranging from orange to green — ours is lime green. The stone is natural (not synthetic), and this color tone is characteristic of the variety.

Q: Is hand stone setting more durable?
A: Yes. Each gemstone is secured with traditional technique, stone by stone. It takes more time, but the stone stays put over years in ways industrial settings don't.

Q: Can I wear these daily or only for special occasions?
A: They're delicate due to opal's nature — we recommend them for special occasions, galas, and events. If you wear them daily, protect them from perfume and chlorine.
