These cartoneado earrings capture the serenity of the Virgin of Guadalupe in miniature form. The dimensional technique — each earring is a small silver sculpture — gives you jewelry that transcends decoration: it's a faith-centered amulet that weighs almost nothing.

Authentic sterling .925, crafted in Taxco using a technique few people outside Guerrero know. Cartoneado is the art of creating volume in silver using sheet metal, without casting — it's a jeweler's patience. Each pair is hand-assembled at the Arte Taxco workshop.

For 500 years, Taxco has been the world's capital of artisanal silversmithing. These earrings connect that tradition with your devotion: the Arte Taxco story is the story of generations of craftspeople who chose silver as their language.
