This Taxco starfish makes that play of light the hero: every facet of the opal glows differently depending on the angle, so these earrings never look quite the same twice. The hand setting in .950 silver lets the stone breathe, amplifying its natural flashes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSterling .950 — purer than .925 — is Taxco's signature on pieces that matter. The hallmark guarantees authenticity: it's the official assay mark that certifies every gram. Stone setting is precision work: each opal is anchored individually, without machines to speed the process. The craftsman spends hours ensuring each stone sits perfect in its silver nest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaxco has been the world's capital of artisanal silversmithing for 500 years — since colonial times, when silver from these mountains traveled to Spanish courts. \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/nuestra-historia\"\u003eThe Arte Taxco story\u003c\/a\u003e is part of that legacy: every piece we make honors the techniques hundreds of generations of silversmiths have perfected.

It's more delicate than quartz, so it requires fine jewelry care.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does each pair have different colors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes.
