A sterling silver cross with no unnecessary ornamentation. The openwork design allows light to pass through, creating a mesmerizing visual effect. At 4 cm tall — about the size of a Mexican five-peso coin — it strikes the perfect balance between delicate and visible. This is the piece that works equally well for everyday wear and sacred moments.

Crafted in authentic .925 sterling silver, marked with the hallmark that guarantees its purity. The openwork technique is one of the most demanding in silversmithing: every line of the design must be cut by hand with a jeweler's saw, with zero room for error. A single mistaken stroke ruins the piece. That's why every cross that reaches your hands is the result of hours of focus and mastery.

Taxco has been the world capital of artisanal silver for 500 years. Discover the story of Arte Taxco and why origin matters. Each piece born in Taxco carries the legacy of generations of silversmiths who perfected this craft.

Frequently Asked Questions

A: No. The pendant comes alone so you can choose exactly the chain you want — length, style, all your call.

Q: What is the openwork technique?
A: It's the art of cutting the design directly into the silver sheet using a hand-held jeweler's saw, leaving the design open so light shines through. It demands watchmaker-level precision and takes hours per piece.
