These earrings capture the essence of Fire Opal: reds, greens, and oranges dancing with light at every head turn. The cut-through circle lets the stone breathe, while the hand-set mounting ensures each flash of color is exactly where it belongs. Sterling .950 is purer than .925 — whiter, nobler — and the hallmark proves it: these are collector-grade pieces.

Stone inlay is a craft that takes hours in Taxco. Each stone is fitted individually, without press or machinery — it is the artisan's hand that decides if the setting is secure. Fire Opal, in particular, is temperamental: only the best workshops dare work with it. That Arte Taxco incorporates it here is a seal of precision and skill.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. It is not just a name on a certificate: it is the guarantee that someone in Guerrero, Mexico, devoted the time necessary to make these earrings exactly this way. The Arte Taxco story stands behind every piece.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What is Fire Opal?
A: A rare opal stone with red, orange, and green flashes. Every piece is unique — no two look alike. It is more delicate than other stones because it contains water in its structure, so avoid perfume, chlorine, and impacts.

Q: Does hand-set inlay make a difference?
A: Yes. Without machinery, the artisan feels every movement of the setting. The stone does not rotate, does not come loose. It takes more time, but it is a lifetime of security.

Q: Can I return them to the Buyback Program if the stone cracks?
A: Yes, but the buyback amount will be lower (a damaged stone reduces value). Best to care for it as you do your most precious things.

Do you have silver you no longer wear?

Old silver, mismatched earrings, inherited bracelets — we buy them back regardless of who made them. Email hola@artetaxco.mx with photos and approximate weight.
