In Taxco, the artisan who sets stone by hand uses no press, no machine — he places each opal in its nest of .950 silver with the precision of one who knows a misset stone is a lost stone. These earrings are small, but densely crafted: 3 cm of compact beauty that hangs weightless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe .950 silver bears the hallmark, a mark of authenticity guaranteeing its superior purity. This higher law than standard .925 is favored in Mexico for delicate stones — the metal is softer, more ductile, and embraces each opal without fracturing. \u003ca href=\"\/en\/blogs\/news\/incrustacion-de-piedra-taxco\"\u003eHand setting is one of the most demanding techniques in jewelry\u003c\/a\u003e: each stone must sit perfect, neither loose nor tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaxco has been the world's capital of artisanal silver for 500 years.
