These are miniature masterpieces of craftsmanship. Each turquoise stone is placed by hand into its silver setting, and the wavy silver frame around it is polished until it catches the light — work that only happens with manual tools and patience. The scale is intimate, the size of a lentil, perfect for someone seeking elegance without volume. Sky blue turquoise is a living stone; each pair has subtle color variations, making yours truly one of a kind.

In Taxco, five centuries ago, silversmiths developed the stone inlay technique you see here: placing the stone without soldering, letting precision and polishing hold it in place. It is a craft that has not disappeared, though each year fewer hands practice it. Stone inlay is the foundation of Taxco jewelry and of the Arte Taxco story.
