This pendant brings together two powerful symbols: the heart, which speaks of love and vulnerability, and the serpent, which in Prehispanic tradition represents renewal and power. The fire opal that inhabits it is a rare stone, with flashes of orange, red, and green that seem alive — as if it holds real fire within. At 4.6 cm long, it wears with presence without overwhelming.

Crafted in .950 sterling silver with hallmark of authenticity, each stone was hand-set — a craft demanding patience and precision. The silver was worked in Taxco, where for 500 years artisans have transformed metal into stories. The Arte Taxco story is the story of that craft, preserved across generations.

Important: this pendant is sold without a chain. You can choose your own separately, in the length and thickness you prefer. That way, you wear it exactly as you imagine it.
