A pair of earrings that carries the essence of Taxco in its purest form: cartoneado. This technique, characteristic of Taxco silversmithing, creates volume with precision — the silver sheet is worked from the reverse to give it the dimension you see in front. The result is a heart that breathes, that plays with light, that never looks flat or cold. At 3 centimeters, the earrings have presence without weight — ideal for those who seek something genuine that speaks without shouting.

Authentic sterling .925, marked with the hallmark guarantee. Cartoneado is not a machine technique: it is Taxco craftsmanship in its most honest form. Each Arte Taxco piece bearing this technique is the result of hours of manual work, decisions that only the artisan makes — no two are ever exactly alike, even when they seem identical at first glance. The history of Taxco's techniques explains why this matters.

Taxco is synonymous worldwide with author silversmithing. For 500 years, this city has been home to the master silversmiths of Latin America. Cartoneado is one of the techniques that defines Taxco — few places in the world practice it with such purity. When you wear these earrings, you carry that heritage with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is cartoneado?
A: A Taxco technique that works sheet silver from the reverse to create 3D volume. It's not casting — it's hand craft, where each tool mark defines the relief.

Q: How heavy are they? Will my ears hurt?
A: At 9.62 g for the pair, they're designed for daily comfort. Sterling .925 is dense but manageable — if you have sensitive ears, we recommend starting with shorter wear sessions.

Q: Can I have them adjusted to a different size?
A: These earrings are fixed at 3 cm. If you need a different measurement, email hola@artetaxco.mx — we can create a custom version.
